Description
A refreshing and tropical Pineapple Lemonade Punch that combines the sweetness of pineapple juice with tangy lemonade and a fizzy lemon-lime soda. Perfect for summer gatherings, this easy no-cook beverage is quick to prepare, can be customized to be less sweet, and easily adapted for adults by adding spirits.
Ingredients
Scale
Juices and Liquids
- 4 cups cold pineapple juice
- 3 cups prepared lemonade, chilled
- 2 cups lemon-lime soda, chilled
- 1 cup cold water or sparkling water
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (optional)
Garnishes
- Ice as needed
- Lemon slices for garnish (optional)
- Pineapple chunks for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Combine Base Ingredients: In a large pitcher or punch bowl, pour the cold pineapple juice, prepared lemonade, and fresh lemon juice if using. Stir thoroughly until all liquids are well mixed to create the base of the punch.
- Prepare to Serve: Just before serving, add the chilled lemon-lime soda and the cold water or sparkling water to the mixture. Gently stir to combine without losing the fizz from the soda.
- Chill and Garnish: Add plenty of ice to the punch to keep it cold. Garnish the punch with fresh lemon slices and pineapple chunks for added visual appeal and flavor.
- Serve Immediately: Pour the punch into glasses and serve right away to enjoy its refreshing fizz and fruity taste. For adult guests, optionally add rum or vodka to individual servings.
Notes
- Use sparkling water instead of lemon-lime soda for a less sweet and lighter punch.
- This recipe can be easily doubled to accommodate larger parties or gatherings.
- To make an adult version, add rum or vodka to individual glasses rather than mixing into the whole punch.
