Ingredients In This Punch Recipe White Grape Juice Concentrate: This is the base of the punch, providing a sweet and fruity flavor. Fresca or Similar Citrus Soda: Adds fizz and a light citrus taste, enhancing the punch’s refreshing quality. Optional Garnishes (Cara Cara Oranges, Raspberries): These add a pop of color and a hint of fresh, tangy flavor, making the punch more visually appealing and slightly altering the flavor profile. QUICK TIP Fresca is a diet grapefruit soda made by the Coca-Cola Company. If you can’t find Fresca, you may be able to locate Squirt®, Izze® or a store brand of diet grapefruit soda. How To Make Fruit Punch Recipe Combine thawed white grape juice concentrate with chilled citrus soda in a large pitcher or bowl. Garnish optionally with sliced Cara cara oranges and/or raspberries. Serve immediately, offering ice separately to avoid dilution. FAQs How Much Punch Do You Need? If you plan to double, triple (or even quadruple) this punch recipe, consider making just one batch at a time. Simply keep the white grape juice and Fresca (and fruit garnishes, if using) chilled in the fridge and ready to go. How Do You Calculate Punch For A Party? Consider the guest count, party duration, and food type. Note punch cup size (usually 4-6 ounces). Estimate 1-2 glasses per guest in the first hour, and 1 glass per hour after. Multiply guests by drinks per hour by ounces per drink for total punch needed. How Much Punch Do You Need For 100 Guests? Using the equation above, here are the calculations for 50, 75, or 100 guests (To help in your shopping, one quart is 32 ounces and a gallon is 128 ounces.) 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 Bowls And Dispensers?

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
Hi Chelsea, I have just learned that Welch’s has discontinued their juice concentrates! I haven’t found another brand available — do you have another source? The only option I can think of is apple juice concentrate, but it has a bit more detectable flavor. Thanks for any suggestions. Reply
I replied a few days ago but don’t know if it went through as I haven’t heard back from you. Bottled white grape juice is certainly available here, but I have found no brands of the frozen concentrate. I like to use it also in other recipes (including baking) instead of sugar, but have been substituting apple jc concentrate for the time being, but prefer white grape as it has a more neutral flavor. Hoping white grape becomes available again soon. Do you have any other suggestions? Reply
Hmm I’m so sorry! I haven’t ever tried anything else but the white grape concentrate so I don’t know what would be best in its place. I think you could use bottled white grape juice; just play around with the quantities a bit since it won’t be the same as the concentrated form. Reply
