Ingredients
Scale
- For the Punch:
- 2 cups pineapple juice
- 1 cup white cranberry juice
- 1 cup coconut milk (or coconut cream for richness)
- 1 liter lemon-lime soda (e.g., Sprite), chilled
- 1/2 cup simple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- For Garnish:
- Fresh cranberries
- Slices of lime or lemon
- Sprigs of rosemary
- Shredded coconut (for a snowy effect)
Instructions
- In a large punch bowl, combine the pineapple juice, white cranberry juice, coconut milk, and vanilla extract.
- Stir in the simple syrup if you prefer a sweeter punch.
- Slowly pour in the chilled lemon-lime soda, stirring gently to combine without losing carbonation.
- Add ice to the punch bowl to keep it cool.
- Garnish with fresh cranberries, lime or lemon slices, rosemary sprigs, and a sprinkle of shredded coconut for a festive touch.
- Serve immediately in glasses filled with ice, and enjoy the tropical holiday vibes!
Notes
- This punch can be made a few hours in advance; just add the soda right before serving to maintain its fizz.
- Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, but the soda may lose its carbonation.
- For a non-alcoholic version, this punch is perfect as is, but you can also add a splash of rum or vodka for an adult twist.
