Instructions:
- In a large, clean plastic beach bucket or punch bowl, pour in the lemon-lime soda, fruit punch, pineapple juice, and orange juice.
- Stir gently to mix the flavors together without losing too much fizz.
- Add the frozen berries, pineapple chunks, orange slices, and lemon slices into the punch.
- Fill with ice cubes as desired or substitute with more frozen fruit for a chill that doesn’t dilute.
- If making an adult version, stir in vodka or rum at this stage.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves and a few cocktail umbrellas or fun straws to set the vibe.
- Serve immediately in small cups with a ladle or scoop.
Variations :
- Tropical Vibes: Swap orange juice for mango nectar or passion fruit juice.
- Citrus Blast: Add lime slices and a splash of limeade for a tangier profile.
- Frozen Party: Freeze juice in silicone molds with berries for cute, colorful punch cubes.
- Mocktail Pop: Serve in individual mason jars with a rim of colored sugar for kids.
- Sparkling Version: Use half soda and half sparkling water for a lighter option.
Tips :
- Keep it cold by chilling all the juices and soda before mixing.
- Use frozen fruit instead of ice to keep the punch flavorful and vibrant without watering it down.
- Make ahead-friendly: You can mix the juices and fruit a few hours in advance and just add soda and ice right before serving.
- Make it glow: Drop in a few glow sticks under the bucket for nighttime parties—just make sure they’re sealed and don’t touch the drink!
