Punch recipes, or drinks in general, are one of my most-visited categories. But I realized I lacked any fourth of july punch recipes and needed to fix that asap! This punch has been a family favorite for years. We make it for any big event or celebration and always receive rave reviews. The best part? It takes me less than $10 and 5 minutes to make enough for a crowd!
Patriotic Punch Recipe Ingredients
Here’s the deal, this recipe has three base ingredients. The rest are fruit- which can be played around with a little bit. What we used is perfect for the 4th, but you can easily swap it for whatever you have on hand.
- Tropical Punch- You can see that I opted for Hawaiian Punch brand this time.
- Pineapple Juice- We like to use pineapple chunks in Juice. I add the pineapple right into the drink.
- Ginger Ale OR Sprite
- Apples, Strawberries, and Blueberries
What To Use In Place Of Hawaiian Punch
I want to specifically break this down. Hawaiian punch is like a “tropical” punch flavor. If you can’t find it in stores, sometimes it can be tricky, you can substitute it with Kool-Aid (made according to the package directions) or the Minute Maid brand. Both taste equally delicious and are a little more convenient to locate in the store.
Promise you won’t miss out on any flavor.
How To Make Fourth Of July Punch
- Combine the tropical punch and pineapple juice in a large punch bowl or two large pitchers. Stir well.
- Chill until you are ready to serve.
- Top with Ginger Ale (or Sprite) and fresh fruit just before serving.
Expert Tips
- If you are serving a large crowd you can easily double this recipe.
- Try freezing the fruit to help keep the punch chilled without watering it down.
- You can also freeze a little of the punch and fruit in a bundt pan to make an ice ring. This looks especially pretty in a punch bowl.
- Planning on the party running long? Divide the punch in half. Serve the first bit at the beginning and keep the second half stored in the refrigerator until the middle of the party.
- Try to only serve ice on the side or in the serving cups. Small ice cubes melt quickly and will dilute the punch flavor.
- Use fruit cutters (affiliate) to create star shapes to add more patriotic fun!
