Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • Green Sherbet (about 1 quart)
  • 1 cup Pineapple Juice
  • 2 cups Lime Soda or Lemon-Lime Soda (such as Sprite or 7-Up)
  • 2 cups Sprite or 7-Up
  • Green Food Coloring (optional, a few drops)
  • Maraschino Cherries (for garnish)
  • Lime Slices (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients so that everything is within easy reach. Scoop the green sherbet into the punch bowl first, as this base will slowly melt and mix with the liquids.
  2. Add the Juices: Pour in the pineapple juice followed by your lemon-lime soda and Sprite or 7-Up. Add green food coloring if you want the green to pop even more. Stir gently to combine without breaking down the sherbet too quickly.
  3. Stir and Chill: Mix the punch lightly just to bring all flavors together. Then, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill well and allow the sherbet to soften without melting completely.
  4. Garnish and Serve: Add lime slices and maraschino cherries on top before serving. Use festive glasses or clear punch cups so everyone can admire the vibrant green color and enjoy the cheerful presentation.

Notes

  • Chill all soda and juice beforehand to keep the punch frosty longer.
  • Scoop sherbet just before serving to maintain creamy texture and prevent early melting.
  • Use clear bowls or glasses to showcase the vibrant green color and garnishes.
  • Adjust sweetness by tasting and adding more juice or soda if needed.
  • For a kid-friendly punch, omit any alcohol additions.
