Fruit Punch Recipe
This easy Fruit Punch, or Party Punch, is the perfect family friendly drink for hot summer days to birthday parties and holiday get togethers.
Equipment
Ingredients
For the punch:
- 3 cups cranberry juice cocktail
- 1 ½ cups pineapple juice
- ¼ cup lime juice or lemon, see note 1
- 2 cups ginger ale
- 2 cups sparkling apple juice
- 1 cup ice
For the garnish (optional):
- blueberries
- strawberries
- oranges
- lemons
Instructions
- We highly recommend using cold juices to make this fruit punch. Combine the cranberry juice cocktail, pineapple juice and lime juice in a large pitcher. Refrigerate if necessary/ desired. Stir in the ginger ale and sparkling apple juice just until combined before serving. Add ice and garnishes if desired. Serve cold and enjoy!
Notes
- We love the way this tastes with lime juice! It adds the perfect complimentary flavor to the other juices and keeps it from being overly sweet. Lemon juice may also be used if that's what you have on hand.
- This turns out best if you use cold juices to start with, so that you don't have to add as much ice and end up watering it down too much.
- Whatever extra fruit you have on hand works great for garnishes. Just slice it up and stick it in and it will look beautiful.
- Our taste testers all agreed that this was best with pineapple juice, but that orange juice also tasted good in it. Feel free to either add a cup or so of orange juice or switch it out with the pineapple.
