Serves: 8-10

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

For the Punch:

• 4 cups lemon-lime soda (such as Sprite or 7-Up)
• 2 cups pineapple juice
• 1 cup orange juice
• 1/2 cup coconut milk (optional, for creaminess)
• 1 cup vanilla ice cream (optional, for a creamy texture)
• 1/2 cup maraschino cherries , plus extra for garnish
• 1/2 cup shredded coconut (toasted, optional for garnish)
• Food coloring (pink, yellow, and blue gel-based, optional for pastel layers)

Optional Add-ins:

• Rainbow sprinkles
• Mini marshmallows
• Whipped cream

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Base

1. In a large punch bowl, combine the lemon-lime soda, pineapple juice, and orange juice. Stir gently to mix.
2. If you prefer a creamy punch, stir in the coconut milk and/or scoop small portions of vanilla ice cream into the punch just before serving.

Step 2: Add Color (Optional)

1. To create pastel layers, divide the punch base into three separate bowls.
2. Add a few drops of pink, yellow, and blue food coloring to each bowl to achieve soft pastel hues.
3. Pour the colored layers gently into the punch bowl or individual glasses, starting with the darkest color at the bottom and layering lighter colors on top.

Step 3: Garnish and Serve

1. Add maraschino cherries, toasted shredded coconut, rainbow sprinkles, or mini marshmallows to the punch bowl for decoration.
2. Serve the punch in clear glasses to showcase the beautiful colors. Top each glass with whipped cream and a cherry for an extra festive touch.

Tips for Success:

• Make it fizzy: Add the lemon-lime soda just before serving to keep the punch bubbly.
• Alcoholic version: For an adult twist, add a splash of vodka, rum, or coconut rum to the punch.
• Non-dairy option: Substitute coconut milk with almond milk or another plant-based alternative.
• Kid-friendly fun: Use bunny-shaped ice cubes or candy bunnies as garnishes for a playful touch.
