Ingredients
Scale
Drink Base
- 1/2 gallon green Hawaiian punch, chilled
- 1 liter Sprite or 7-UP (diet preferred), chilled
Frosty Addition
- 4–5 scoops lime sherbet
Garnish
- 1 cup strawberries, cut into heart shapes
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberries: Wash fresh strawberries thoroughly, then carefully cut them into charming heart shapes using a small paring knife or a strawberry heart cutter for a decorative garnish.
- Combine the Punch and Soda: In a large punch bowl or pitcher, pour in the chilled green Hawaiian punch followed by the chilled Sprite or 7-UP. Stir gently to mix the liquids without losing the carbonation.
- Add the Lime Sherbet: Scoop 4 to 5 generous scoops of lime sherbet into the punch mixture. The sherbet will slowly melt, giving the punch a creamy texture and a fizzy, refreshing taste.
- Garnish and Serve: Floating the heart-shaped strawberries on top adds a festive touch and bursts of fresh flavor. Serve immediately with punch cups and a ladle for easy pouring.
Notes
- Use diet soda if you prefer a lower sugar version of this punch.
- For extra festive flair, add green tinted ice cubes made from lime juice or green Hawaiian punch.
- You can substitute lime sherbet with lemon or orange sherbet for a different citrus twist.
- Prepare the punch shortly before serving to keep the soda fizzy and the sherbet from melting too much.
