Ingredients
1 (12 oz) can frozen limeade concentrate, thawed
1 (2-liter) bottle lemon-lime soda (e.g., Sprite or 7-Up), chilled
1 quart lime sherbet
1 cup pineapple juice, chilled
1/2 cup heavy cream (optional, for creamier punch)
Red sanding sugar (optional, for glass rim)
Maraschino cherries or candy hearts (for garnish)
Instructions
Optional: Prepare the glasses by dipping the rims in water and then coating them with red sanding sugar. Set aside.
In a large punch bowl, combine the limeade concentrate and pineapple juice. Stir until fully blended.
Gradually add the lemon-lime soda to the punch bowl, mixing gently to preserve the fizz.
Scoop the lime sherbet into the punch bowl, allowing it to float and melt slightly to create a frothy effect.
For a creamier punch, stir in the heavy cream (optional).
Serve in prepared glasses, garnished with a maraschino cherry or candy heart for a festive touch.
Notes
- Chill all ingredients before preparation for best results.
- For a stronger green color, add a few drops of green food coloring.
- Add soda just before serving to maintain fizz.
