Instructions:
- In a large punch bowl, combine cranberry juice and lemon-lime soda. Stir gently to mix.
- Add scoops of raspberry sherbet, allowing them to float on the surface and create a foamy, “bloody” look.
- Drop in peeled grapes to resemble eyeballs.
- Just before serving, garnish the rims of glasses with gummy fangs or float them directly in the punch bowl.
- Serve immediately while the sherbet is still frothy and enjoy the spooky fun.
Variations
- Boozy version: Add 1–2 cups of vodka or white rum for an adult-friendly punch.
- Darker look: Use black cherry soda in place of lemon-lime for a deeper, more haunting red color.
- Creepy ice cubes: Freeze grapes or gummy candies in ice cube trays with cranberry juice and drop them in before serving.
- Green twist: Swap raspberry sherbet for lime sherbet to create a monster-inspired version.
Tips
- Freeze the peeled grapes ahead of time so they double as both decoration and ice cubes.
- Add the sherbet just before serving so it keeps its frothy, foamy effect.
- For maximum Halloween flair, serve in clear glasses so the color and garnishes can be seen.
- If making ahead, refrigerate the juice and soda separately, then combine just before serving to keep the fizz strong.
- Use themed cups, dry ice (with safety precautions), or creepy straws to make the punch even more festive.
