Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups cherry juice or fruit punch
- 2 cups cranberry juice
- 1 cup pomegranate juice (optional)
- 1/2 cup orange juice (optional)
- Juice of 1 lime (or 2 tablespoons bottled)
- 1 liter lemon-lime soda or ginger ale, chilled
- Ice or frozen red fruit (raspberries or cherries)
Optional Garnishes:
- Gummy eyeballs
- Plastic vampire teeth (for decoration only)
- Frozen “blood cubes” (cranberry juice frozen in ice trays)
- Red sugar rim for glasses
- Dry ice for fog effect (handle with care)
Instructions
- Mix the Juices: In a large punch bowl, combine cherry juice, cranberry juice, pomegranate juice, orange juice (if using), and lime juice. Stir well.
- Chill: Refrigerate the juice mixture or keep it over ice until ready to serve. For best results, freeze some juice into ice cubes to avoid dilution.
- Add Fizz: Just before serving, slowly pour in the chilled lemon-lime soda or ginger ale. Stir gently to retain bubbles.
- Garnish: Add spooky decorations like gummy eyeballs, vampire teeth, or frozen red fruit. For dramatic fog, carefully drop in small pieces of dry ice using tongs.
Notes
- Use 100% fruit juices for a no-sugar-added version.
- Want a tangier flavor? Increase the lime or cranberry juice.
- Scale down the recipe easily by halving the ingredients.
- Add juice-based ice cubes to keep the punch flavorful and cold.
