4.2 from 10 reviews

A refreshing and vibrant Party Punch recipe that combines tangy raspberry lemonade, fizzy lemon-lime soda, and creamy raspberry sherbet for a crowd-pleasing beverage perfect for any celebration.

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 1 large punch bowl (serves approximately 12-15 people)

Ingredients

Liquid Ingredients

  • 2 cans frozen raspberry lemonade (prepare using only 2/3 the amount of water called for)
  • 2 liters lemon lime soda

Other Ingredients

  • 1/2 gallon raspberry sherbet or raspberry sorbet
  • Fresh raspberries for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare Raspberry Lemonade: In a large pitcher, mix the frozen raspberry lemonade concentrate with water, but use only two-thirds of the water amount specified on the package to keep the punch flavorful and strong.
  2. Chill Beverages: Place the prepared raspberry lemonade and the lemon lime soda in the refrigerator to chill thoroughly before serving, ensuring the punch is refreshing and cool.
  3. Combine Punch Ingredients: When ready to serve, pour equal parts of the prepared raspberry lemonade and chilled lemon lime soda into a punch bowl to create the base of the party punch.
  4. Add Sherbet or Sorbet: Add generous scoops of raspberry sherbet or sorbet to the punch bowl. The sherbet will slowly melt into the drink, adding creaminess and enhancing the raspberry flavor.
  5. Garnish: Scatter fresh raspberries over the top of the punch for an attractive and tasty garnish that adds a burst of fresh fruit flavor.
  6. Serve: Ladle the punch into glasses and serve immediately for a delicious, festive drink that guests will love.

Notes

  • Using 2/3 the water when preparing raspberry lemonade concentrate keeps the flavors bold and prevents the punch from becoming too diluted.
  • The raspberry sherbet or sorbet can be substituted with other fruit-flavored sherbets depending on your preference.
  • Chilling the drinks beforehand is key to keeping the punch cold and refreshing without needing too much ice, which can dilute the taste.
  • For an adult version, you can add vodka or rum to the punch base before adding the sherbet.
  • This punch is best served fresh, but it can be prepared a few hours in advance and kept refrigerated (add sherbet just before serving).
