Halloween Haunted Fog Punch

Instructions:

1. In a large punch bowl, combine the fruit punch, lemon-lime soda, and pineapple juice. Stir gently to mix.
2. Add the orange and lemon slices along with a handful of ice cubes to keep the punch cold.
3. Just before serving, use tongs and protective gloves to carefully add a small piece of dry ice into the punch.
4. Watch as the mixture begins to bubble and emit a spooky fog effect that lasts for about 5–10 minutes.
5. Replenish with additional small chunks of dry ice as needed, but do not allow guests to ingest or touch the dry ice directly.
6. Ladle the punch into cups, ensuring no dry ice pieces are scooped into the drinks.

Variations :

• For a grown-up version: Add a splash of vodka, rum, or orange liqueur for a boozy twist.
• Use themed molds: Freeze orange juice in skull or bat-shaped molds to float in the punch.
• Swap juices: Try using cranberry juice or blood orange juice for a deeper red, more ghoulish color.
• Make it sugar-free: Use diet lemon-lime soda and reduced-sugar fruit punch.

Tips :

• Always handle dry ice with care—use thick gloves or tongs to avoid burns.
• Never place dry ice in a sealed container, as gas buildup can cause it to explode.
• For continuous fog, place the punch bowl inside a larger container or cauldron filled with warm water and dry ice. This keeps the fog flowing without affecting the punch itself.
• Do not consume or serve dry ice pieces—ensure they’ve fully sublimated before refilling cups.
• Prepare all liquid ingredients ahead of time and keep them chilled so the punch stays cool without too much added ice.
