Ingredients
Scale
Liquid Ingredients
- 4 cups Ginger Ale (chilled for maximum fizz)
- 4 cups Pink Lemonade (or regular lemonade mixed with cranberry juice for color)
- 2 cups Cranberry Juice (unsweetened for less sweetness)
Toppings and Garnishes
- 1 cup Whipped Topping (optional; substitute with whipped coconut cream for dairy-free)
- 2 tablespoons Edible Pink Glitter (for visual sparkle; substitute with colored sugar if desired)
- 2 tablespoons Pink Sanding Sugar (for rimming glasses)
- 1 cup Sliced Fruit (strawberries, oranges, or lemons for garnish)
Other
- 4 cups Ice (to keep the punch chilled)
Instructions
- Prepare Glasses: Rim each glass with pink sanding sugar by moistening the rim and dipping it into the sugar. This adds a festive sparkle and enhances presentation.
- Mix Punch: In a large punch bowl, combine 4 cups of chilled ginger ale, 4 cups of pink lemonade, and 2 cups of unsweetened cranberry juice. Stir gently to blend flavors while preserving the fizziness of the ginger ale.
- Add Ice and Fruit: Add 4 cups of ice cubes to the punch bowl to keep the mix cold. Then, float sliced strawberries, oranges, or lemons on top to add vibrant color and fresh fruit flavor.
- Add Toppings: Spoon 1 cup of whipped topping (or whipped coconut cream for a dairy-free option) onto the punch. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of edible pink glitter over the whipped topping to create an enchanting visual effect.
- Serve Immediately: Ladle the punch into the prepared glasses and serve right away to enjoy the refreshing fizz and festive presentation.
Notes
- Using unsweetened cranberry juice helps control the sweetness level of the punch.
- Edible pink glitter can be substituted with colored sugar if unavailable.
- For a dairy-free version, replace whipped topping with whipped coconut cream.
- Ensure the ginger ale and all juices are well chilled before preparation to maximize refreshment.
- Prepare the punch just before serving to keep the carbonation lively.
