Ingredients
Scale
- 1 liter lemon-lime soda (like Sprite or 7UP)
- 1 quart lime sherbet
- 1 can (12 oz) frozen limeade concentrate, thawed
- 4 cups cold water
- 1 cup pineapple juice (optional, but highly recommended)
- Green food coloring (gel works best, optional)
- Ice ring or ice cubes (optional, for serving)
- Dry ice (optional, for adults only)
- Gummy worms, spiders, or eyeballs (for garnish)
Instructions
- If making a decorative ice ring or spooky ice cubes, do this at least 4 hours ahead or the night before. Fill your mold with water and add any edible decorations like gummy worms, plastic spiders, or frozen berries. Freeze until solid.
- In a large pitcher, combine the thawed limeade concentrate, cold water, and pineapple juice (if using). Stir until the concentrate is fully dissolved.
- Place the pitcher of mixed liquids and the bottle of lemon-lime soda in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- When ready to serve, add the ice ring or ice cubes to the punch bowl. If using dry ice, place it carefully in the bottom of the bowl using tongs.
- Slowly pour the chilled lemon-lime soda into the punch bowl, pouring down the side to preserve carbonation. Then add scoops of lime sherbet on top. Stir gently to create a frothy, creamy texture.
- Add gummy worms, plastic spiders, or candy eyeballs for garnish. For a bubbling cauldron effect, add a few drops of green food coloring to the sherbet scoops before stirring.
- Ladle the punch into cups, making sure each serving gets a little melted sherbet and a garnish. Serve immediately.
Notes
This punch is best served immediately. For a dairy-free version, substitute lime sherbet with dairy-free lime sorbet. For an adult version, add a splash of vodka or coconut rum. To keep the punch cold without watering it down, use an ice ring made from the punch itself.
