Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 4 cups fruit punch
  • 2 cups orange juice
  • 2 cups pineapple juice

Fizz and Garnishes

  • 2 cups chilled club soda or sparkling water
  • 1 orange, thinly sliced
  • 1 lemon, thinly sliced
  • 1 lime, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup grenadine
  • Ice cubes or frozen fruit cubes

Instructions

  1. Combine the Juices: In a large punch bowl or pitcher, mix together fruit punch, orange juice, and pineapple juice to create the sweet and tangy base for the punch.
  2. Add the Sparkle: Just before serving, gently stir in chilled club soda or sparkling water to add a lively fizz to the drink.
  3. Garnish with Citrus: Add thin slices of oranges, lemons, and limes into the punch to infuse subtle citrus notes and create a colorful, layered effect.
  4. Add a Splash of Color: Drizzle grenadine over the punch; it will sink to the bottom and create a beautiful ruby red swirl, enhancing the Halloween theme.
  5. Chill and Serve: Add plenty of ice cubes or frozen fruit to keep the punch cold, then ladle into glasses to serve your guests.

Notes

  • Chill all juices and soda before mixing to keep punch from diluting quickly.
  • Use a clear punch bowl to showcase the vibrant colors and floating fruit beautifully.
  • Frozen fruit cubes add flavor and keep the punch chilled without watering it down.
  • Prepare the juice mixture one day ahead and refrigerate for deeper flavor melding.
  • Adjust sweetness with extra grenadine or juice to suit your taste preferences.
