Description

Party Strawberry Punch is a refreshing, fruity, and fizzy party drink made with sweet strawberries, tropical pineapple juice, citrus juices, and sparkling ginger ale. Perfect for birthdays, showers, holidays, and summer gatherings, this vibrant punch is easy to prepare, make-ahead friendly, and always a crowd favorite.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (16 oz) frozen strawberries
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups pineapple juice, chilled
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice
  • 1 cup orange juice, chilled
  • 1 bottle (2 liters) ginger ale or lemon-lime soda, chilled
  • Ice cubes or fruit ice ring (optional)
  • Fresh strawberries and citrus slices for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan, combine water and sugar over medium heat. Stir until the sugar completely dissolves to create a simple syrup.
  2. Remove from heat and allow the syrup to cool slightly. Add the frozen strawberries and let them soften for several minutes.
  3. Transfer the strawberry mixture to a blender and blend until smooth and fully pureed.
  4. Pour the puree into a large punch bowl or beverage dispenser. Stir in the pineapple juice, lemon juice, and orange juice until well combined.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until thoroughly chilled.
  6. Just before serving, slowly add the chilled ginger ale or lemon-lime soda and stir gently to preserve carbonation.
  7. Add ice cubes or a decorative fruit ice ring. Garnish with fresh strawberries and citrus slices if desired, then serve immediately.

Notes

  • Add the soda just before serving to keep the punch fizzy.
  • For a less sweet version, reduce the sugar or substitute with honey or a natural sweetener.
  • Freeze some of the juice mixture into ice cubes to prevent dilution.
  • For an adult version, add vodka, rum, or sparkling wine right before serving.
  • The punch base (without soda) can be made up to 24 hours in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
