Drink Components
- 1/2 gallon green Hawaiian punch, chilled
- 1 liter Sprite or 7-UP (diet preferred), chilled
- 4–5 scoops lime sherbet
- 1 cup strawberries, cut into heart shapes
Instructions
- Prepare the strawberries. Wash the strawberries thoroughly, hull them by removing the green leafy tops, and carefully cut each into heart shapes to add a festive visual element to the punch.
- Combine the Hawaiian punch and soda. In a large punch bowl, pour the chilled green Hawaiian punch and chilled Sprite or 7-UP together. Gently stir to mix the flavors.
- Add the lime sherbet. Using a large spoon or scoop, add 4 to 5 generous scoops of lime sherbet on top of the punch mixture. The sherbet will slowly melt and add a creamy texture and tartness.
- Incorporate the strawberries. Gently float the heart-shaped strawberries on top of the punch. This adds a decorative and flavorful element to the drink.
- Serve immediately. Use a ladle to serve the punch into cups, making sure each serving has some sherbet and strawberries for a balanced, festive experience.
Notes
- Use diet soda to reduce sugar content if desired.
- For a non-alcoholic version, this punch is perfect as is, but you can add a splash of lemon-lime soda for extra fizz.
- Prepare the punch just before serving to maintain the sherbet’s texture and the fizz of the soda.
- Heart-shaped strawberries can be made with a small knife or specialized fruit cutter for an appealing presentation.
- To make the punch more colorful, consider adding other fruits like pineapple chunks or green grapes.
