Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups lemon-lime soda (Sprite or 7-Up)
- 2 cups pineapple juice
- 1 cup lime sherbet (or green sherbet)
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1/4 cup simple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
- Green food coloring (optional, to enhance the spooky color)
- Gummy worms or gummy bugs (for garnish)
- Ice cubes
- Optional alcohol (for adults): 1 cup vodka or rum
Instructions
Step 1:
In a large punch bowl or pitcher, pour the lemon-lime soda, pineapple juice, and lime juice. Stir to combine all the flavors.
Step 2:
Add the lime sherbet to the punch. As it melts, it will create a frothy, foamy texture, giving the punch a spooky, bubbling cauldron effect.
Step 3:
For extra sweetness, stir in the simple syrup. If you want to intensify the green color, add a few drops of green food coloring and stir well.
Step 4:
Add ice cubes to the punch to keep it cool, and if you’re making an adult version, pour in the vodka or rum and stir again.
Step 5:
Garnish the punch with gummy worms or gummy bugs, letting them float on top or dangle over the edge of the punch bowl for a creepy-crawly effect.
Notes
- If the sherbet is too frozen, let it sit out for a few minutes to soften before adding it to the punch. This will help it blend more easily.
- For extra creepiness, freeze gummy worms in ice cubes ahead of time to add them to the punch for a surprise as they thaw!
