How to Make Perfect Purple Punch

  1. Place a (1-2 lb) chunk of dry ice (optional) in the bottom of a large punch bowl.
  2. Sprinkle 2 cups of frozen raspberries over the dry ice (or directly on the bottom of the bowl if omitting dry ice).
  3. Gently spoon 2 (1-quart) containers of raspberry sherbet into the bowl.
  4. In a separate pitcher, combine 4 cups of water with 2 (12-oz) cans of frozen lemon-limeade concentrate. Pour this mixture over the sherbet and raspberries.
  5. Slowly pour 4 (12-oz) bottles of chilled ginger ale down the sides of the punch bowl to maintain the layering effect.
  6. Stir gently with a large spoon to combine slightly, being careful not to overmix. Serve immediately or chill for later. Add more ginger ale if it gets too thick.
