This eerie, bubbling green punch comes together in about fifteen minutes flat and is the perfect Halloween party centerpiece. It’s sweet, tart, and topped with a frothy sherbet that makes it look like a bubbling cauldron.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (12 oz) frozen limeade concentrate, thawed
  • 1 can (12 oz) frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
  • 4 cups cold water
  • 1 liter lemon-lime soda (like Sprite or 7-Up), chilled
  • 1 quart (about 4 cups) lime or green sherbet
  • Green food coloring (optional, 5-6 drops)
  • Ice cubes
  • Green apple slices (optional, for garnish)
  • Gummy worms (optional, for garnish)
  • Dry ice (optional, for adult-only parties)

Instructions

  1. In a large pitcher, combine the thawed limeade concentrate, thawed lemonade concentrate, and 4 cups of cold water. Stir well until smooth.
  2. If desired, add 5-6 drops of green food coloring and stir to deepen the color.
  3. Chill the base in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or skip if in a rush).
  4. Fill a large punch bowl or container about halfway with ice cubes.
  5. Pour the chilled base over the ice, then slowly add the entire liter of chilled lemon-lime soda. Stir gently to combine.
  6. Drop large dollops of lime sherbet into the punch. Do not stir completely; let it float and melt slowly for a frothy effect.
  7. Garnish with green apple slices and gummy worms if desired. Serve immediately.
  8. As the punch gets low, add more soda and sherbet to keep it topped up.

Notes

Don’t stir the sherbet in completely; let it float for the best visual effect. Chill all ingredients ahead of time to keep the punch cold and fizzy. For a less sweet version, use diet lemon-lime soda. For a dairy-free version, use coconut-based lime sorbet instead of sherbet. If using dry ice, handle with tongs and never let anyone consume it.
