Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cans (12 oz each) Lemon-Lime Soda
- 4 cups Fruit Punch Juice
- 1/2 cup Grenadine Syrup
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Lemon Juice
- Lots of Ice Cubes
- 1 teaspoon Edible Glitter or Luster Dust
- Gummy Worms or Plastic Eyeballs (for garnish)
- 1–2 pounds Dry Ice (optional, for fog effect)
Instructions
- Chill the punch bowl in the freezer for 30 minutes and chill the juice and soda beforehand.
- In the large punch bowl or a pitcher, combine the fruit punch juice and fresh lemon juice. Stir gently to combine.
- Slowly pour in the lemon-lime soda to retain carbonation. Stir gently one or two times; do not over-stir.
- Fill the bowl with ice cubes, leaving about 2 inches of space at the top.
- Slowly pour the grenadine syrup into the center of the bowl. Do not stir; let it sink to the bottom to create a red swirl.
- If using dry ice, break it into smaller pieces using tongs and place 1-2 chunks into the punch bowl to create fog.
- Garnish with gummy worms or plastic eyeballs and add edible glitter.
- Stir gently right before serving to mix the grenadine.
Notes
Handle dry ice with tongs or gloves; never with bare hands. Do not put dry ice in a sealed container as it can explode. The dry ice fog will dissipate after 20-30 minutes. For a healthier twist, swap half the soda for sparkling water. If you don’t have dry ice, you can skip the fog effect.
