What You’ll Need

Ingredients:

1 liter lemon-lime soda (chilled)
2 cups pineapple juice (chilled)
2 cups lime sherbet
½ cup coconut milk
½ cup maraschino cherry juice
Fresh lime slices (for garnish)
Maraschino cherries (for garnish)
Whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Ice cubes

Pro Tips

✔ Chill your ingredients – A colder punch means less melted sherbet and a frostier drink! Pop everything in the fridge before making it.
✔ Use clear cups – That bright green color is too pretty to hide! Serve in clear glasses so it shines.
✔ Make it kid-friendly – Get the kids involved! Let them scoop the sherbet or pour in the soda (with supervision, of course!).
✔ Want more fizz? Add the soda last so it keeps its bubbles longer.
✔ Make it a party drink – Add a splash of white rum for an adult version!

Make-Ahead Tips

🥶 Prep ahead! Slice the limes and chill all the ingredients a few hours before serving. The punch itself is best made fresh!

How to Make Emerald Isle Punch

Step 1: Add Pineapple Juice & Coconut Milk

Pour 2 cups of chilled pineapple juice and ½ cup of coconut milk into a large glass punch bowl. Stir to combine.

Step 2: Add Lime Sherbet

Scoop 2 cups of lime sherbet into the punch bowl. Let it float on top—this adds a frothy, creamy texture.

Step 3: Pour in Lemon-Lime Soda

Slowly pour 1 liter of chilled lemon-lime soda over the sherbet. Watch as it fizzes and foams up!

Step 4: Add Maraschino Cherry Juice

Pour in ½ cup of maraschino cherry juice for a hint of sweetness and a touch of color.

Step 5: Garnish & Serve

Add fresh lime slices and maraschino cherries on top. Serve in clear glasses with whipped cream and a cherry on top!

Leftovers & Storage

🥶 This punch is best served fresh! If you have leftovers, store them in the fridge for a few hours, but the fizz will fade. For the best experience, make a fresh batch when needed!
