Ingredients
- 1 bottle (52 ounces) Simply Made Fruit Punch
- ¼ cup Pink Lemonade Frozen Concentrate
- ¼ cup Strawberry Simple Syrup
- 2 liters of Sprite (lemon lime soda)
Instructions
For the coldest, most refreshing punch, be sure all ingredients are well chilled before you begin. This helps keep the punch cool without needing too much ice, which can water down the flavor.
Pour the 52-ounce bottle of fruit punch into a large punch bowl or drink dispenser. Add the thawed pink lemonade concentrate and stir well until fully blended. Store in the fridge until ready to serve. (Don’t add the sprite until serving time.)
When ready to serve, slowly pour in the 2 liters of Sprite, then gently stir in the strawberry syrup. The syrup adds extra fruity flavor.
Stir everything together and sample the punch. If you’d like it a little sweeter, mix in additional strawberry syrup or a little more pink lemonade concentrate.
Add ice if desired or serve without ice for a stronger flavor. For a fun finishing touch, garnish with fresh fruit slices such as raspberries, lemons, limes, and/or strawberries. Serve fresh and enjoy!
Servings
Serves 10-12.
Storage
Store leftover Party Punch in a covered pitcher or airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days, keeping the Sprite separate if possible to maintain maximum fizz and freshness.
Holly’s Tips for The Best Party Punch Recipe:
- Chill Ingredients First: For the best fruit punch recipe, make sure all ingredients, including fruit punch, Sprite, and pink lemonade concentrate, are fully chilled before mixing to keep your party punch cold without watering it down.
- Add Soda Last: Always pour in the Sprite soda right before serving to preserve the fizz and keep your sparkling party punch light and refreshing.
- Use A Large Punch Bowl or Drink Dispenser: A spacious container helps evenly mix ingredients and makes serving this party punch for a crowd much easier.
- Stir Gently: When combining ingredients, stir slowly to maintain carbonation and avoid flattening the soda in this fizzy fruit punch. This also helps keep the bubbles, which makes it more fun for the kids.
- Serve Fresh Over Ice: For best results, serve over ice just before drinking or use frozen fruit instead of ice cubes to prevent dilution of your party punch recipe.
