This festive Grinch Punch is a bright green, sweet and fizzy holiday drink made with fruity punch, lemon-lime soda, and pineapple juice. Finished with a red sugar rim, it’s a fun, family-friendly drink for Christmas parties and movie nights.

Ingredients

  • 1 gallon green Hawaiian Punch
  • 2 liters Sprite or other lemon-lime soda
  • 46 ounces pineapple juice
  • Red sanding sugar, for decorating glasses
  • Water, for wetting the rims of glasses

Instructions

  1. Pour the green Hawaiian Punch into a large punch bowl or beverage dispenser.
  2. Add the pineapple juice and gently stir to combine.
  3. Slowly pour in the Sprite or lemon-lime soda and stir gently to preserve the carbonation.
  4. Pour a small amount of water into a shallow dish and place the red sanding sugar in a separate shallow dish.
  5. Dip the rim of each serving glass into the water, then into the red sanding sugar to create a festive red rim.
  6. Carefully ladle or pour the Grinch Punch into the prepared glasses.
  7. Serve immediately while cold and fizzy.

Notes

  • Chill all the ingredients before mixing so the punch stays cold without needing much ice.
  • Add the lemon-lime soda just before serving to keep the punch bubbly.
  • Use ginger ale instead of Sprite for a slightly different flavor.
  • For a festive presentation, garnish with red maraschino cherries or green and red holiday straws.
  • To prepare ahead, combine the Hawaiian Punch and pineapple juice and refrigerate. Add the soda just before serving.
  • Store leftover punch covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The soda will gradually lose its fizz.
