Ingredients
Scale
Base Liquids
- 1 bottle (2 liters) lemon-lime soda, chilled
- 1 bottle (64 ounces) white cranberry juice, chilled
- 1 bottle (750 ml) sparkling white grape juice, chilled
Additions
- 1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream
Garnishes
- 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- Fresh cranberries (optional)
- Mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
- Combine Liquids: In a large punch bowl, pour in the lemon-lime soda, white cranberry juice, and sparkling white grape juice. Gently stir the mixture to combine without losing the carbonation from the soda.
- Add Ice Cream: Carefully add scoops of vanilla ice cream on top of the punch. Allow the ice cream to float and slowly melt, creating a creamy, frosty effect across the punch surface.
- Sprinkle Coconut: Evenly sprinkle shredded sweetened coconut over the top of the punch to resemble falling snow, enhancing the festive presentation.
- Garnish: For added color and holiday flair, optionally add fresh cranberries and mint leaves around the edge of the punch bowl or directly on top.
- Serve: Serve immediately using a ladle into festive glasses. To elevate the experience, consider rimming glasses with sugar or coconut flakes before serving.
Notes
- For an adult version, add a splash of coconut rum or vodka to the punch.
- To prepare ahead, mix the juices and refrigerate. Add soda and ice cream just before serving to maintain fizz and creaminess.
- Rimming glasses with sugar or toasted coconut flakes creates a sparkling effect and adds extra flavor.
