St. Patrick’s Day is pretty popular here on the blog! You guys seem to go crazy for my green and Irish Cream infused recipes each year! Personally, I’ve always loved St. Patrick’s Day. I love green, I love Ireland, and like many New Englanders, I have a strong Irish heritage.

My kids love St. Patrick’s Day; my oldest is obsessed with making Leprechaun traps and talks about it all year round. I love watching my girls enjoy the holidays, throwing parties, and creating new family traditions.

And no party is complete without punch, especially when it takes just 5 minutes to make! If you don’t agree, you’re not invited 😜

St. Paddy’s Day Punch Ingredients

This punch recipe is SUPER easy to make! Even the kids can help you do it or do it on their own depending on their age! To make this Green Punch Recipe you’ll need:

• White Grape Juice
• Lemon-Lime Soda like Sprite or Sierra Mist
• Orange Juice
• Green Food Coloring
• Rainbow Sherbet
• Ice

You could really get festive and have some St. Patrick’s Day cups and gold straws to serve the punch in!

How To Make Green Punch

1. Combine the juices, soda, and green food coloring in a large punch bowl or pitcher with ice.
2. Top with scoops of rainbow sherbet.
3. Serve and enjoy immediately!

The soda will lose fizz and the sherbet will melt after a little bit so if you’re serving it at an event that’s going to last a couple of hours, be sure to top it off with some fresh stuff!

Can I Make This Party Punch Ahead Of Time?

The ingredients in this punch don’t do well for a long period of time once it’s been made. The lemon-lime soda loses its carbonation and the sherbet melts.

For the best taste, you want to make this right before serving and enjoying it!

How Many People Will One Batch Of This Recipe Serve?

Depending on the serving sizes you should be able to serve about 8 people. If you’re serving a larger crowd you’ll want to double the ingredients.

What’s The Best Way To Store Leftovers?

I actually wouldn’t recommend storing the leftovers. The soda goes flat and the sherbet melts changing the overall taste and texture of the punch.

How Can I Make An Alcoholic Variation Of This Holiday Punch?

For an alcoholic variation, I’d suggest using Irish Whiskey or vodka! Use as much or as little as you’d like. Just be sure that only the adults get into this punch bowl!
