How to Make Pretty Party Punch

  1. In a medium bowl, dissolve 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 (3-ounce) packet of soft drink mix in 1 cup of hot water. Stir until completely dissolved.
  2. Allow the mixture to cool completely to room temperature. This prevents the ice from melting too quickly.
  3. Once cooled, gently pour the soft drink mixture into a large punch bowl.
  4. Add 2 liters of lemon-lime soda and 1 liter of ginger ale. Stir gently to combine.
  5. Add ice and garnish with fresh fruit slices (optional) before serving. Enjoy!
