This Cozy Green Witches Brew Punch is a fun, fizzy, and festive Halloween drink made with lime sherbet, ginger ale, and gummy worms. It’s quick to prepare and perfect for parties, with a creamy, bubbly texture that kids and adults love.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.75 quarts (about 1.5 liters) lime sherbet
  • 2 liters ginger ale
  • 1 liter lemon-lime soda (e.g., Sprite or 7UP)
  • 3–4 drops green food coloring (optional)
  • 1 cup gummy worms
  • 1–2 pounds dry ice (optional, for fog effect)
  • 2 cups ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Pre-freeze the sherbet scoops at least 4 hours ahead or the night before: Let the lime sherbet sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly. Using an ice cream scoop, create 12-16 evenly sized scoops (about 2 tablespoons each). Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, making sure they don’t touch. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely solid.
  2. Prepare the gummy worm ice cubes (optional): Place one gummy worm in each compartment of an ice cube tray. Fill with water and freeze for at least 3 hours.
  3. Chill the liquids: Place both the ginger ale and lemon-lime soda in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
  4. Assemble the punch base (5 minutes before serving): In a large punch bowl, combine the chilled ginger ale and lemon-lime soda. Stir gently to mix. If using green food coloring, mix 3-4 drops with 2 tablespoons of soda in a small bowl first, then pour into the punch to prevent streaks.
  5. Add the frozen sherbet scoops: Gently drop the pre-frozen sherbet scoops into the punch. Add 8-10 scoops for a crowd; reserve the rest in the freezer for refills.
  6. Add ice and garnishes: Drop in the gummy worm ice cubes (if using) and a few extra gummy worms on top. Add regular ice cubes if desired.
  7. Optional dry ice effect: If using dry ice, break it into small chunks (wearing gloves) and carefully drop them into the punch using tongs. Never touch dry ice with bare skin. Add just before guests arrive.
  8. Serve immediately: Ladle into cups, making sure each serving gets a scoop of melting sherbet and a gummy worm or two. Best enjoyed within the first 30 minutes.

Notes

Pre-freezing the sherbet scoops is key to prevent the punch from becoming watery. For a spiked adult version, add 1 cup of vodka or white rum. For a dairy-free version, use lime sorbet and add a splash of coconut milk. The punch is best served within 30 minutes of assembly.
