This drink recipe takes less than 5 minutes to whip together and it’s always a hit, wherever it’s served! This punch recipe is also perfect for baby or bridal showers where you need a non-alcoholic beverage.

I first tried this punch at my friend Stephanie’s house for a Bunco night. One sip of this drink and I had to know what was in it. Come to find out it’s only TWO ingredients (!!!) Two ingredients (I add in some fruit garnishes bringing the total up to 3 or 4 ingredients, but they’re optional) and your punch game will forever be changed. Stephanie’s recipe has quickly become my go-to punch recipe because when you’re making a whole spread of dishes, the last thing you need is a complicated drink recipe. Punch recipe ingredients This simple recipe is made of white grape juice concentrate and a bottle of Fresca. I like to add in some fresh fruit for a garnish, but that’s completely optional. If Cara Cara oranges are in season that is my favorite addition to add. Raspberries also compliment the drink well and look beautiful. How much punch do you need? This is one of the most commonly asked questions when preparing a punch. Generally punch is made for a party, so it’s important to get drink estimates right. If you plan to double, triple (or even quadruple) this recipe, consider making just one batch at a time. Simply keep the white grape juice and Fresca (and cut up and packaged fruit in a bag if using) chilled in the fridge and ready to go. Doing this will prevent wasted ingredients if you end up not needing as much as you originally estimated. How do you calculate punch for a party? To calculate the amount needed, consider the number of guests, the length of the party, and what type of food will be served (sweet or salty, main course or appetizers). You’ll also want to determine how many ounces your punch cups hold (most punch glasses are 4 to 6 ounces). An average guest will drink one to two (4 ounce) glasses of punch in the first hour of the party and one glass for every subsequent hour. Multiply the number of guests times the number each of them will drink times the amount of ounces in each drink to determine the amount of total ounces of punch you’ll need. How much punch do you need for 100 guests? Using the equation above, here are the calculations for 50, 75, or 100 guests: 50 guests x 4 drinks x 4 ounces = 800 ounces of punch 75 guests x 4 drinks x 4 ounces =1200 ounces of punch 100 guests x 4 drinks x 4 ounces = 1600 ounces of punch Punch recipe variations Punch recipes with sherbet: here’s my favorite sherbet punch recipe with plenty of variation ideas.

I love easy and elegant drink recipes! Have you heard of coffee punch? I think it’s more common in the South but if you haven’t tried it, you’ve got too. It would make a beautiful blog post, too. It’s basically coffee, milk, sugar, and ICE CREAM. So delish. Perfect for a bridal or baby shower. Reply
