    • Pink Sherbet Punch

    ★ Why You’ll Love this Recipe ★

    This frothy pink punch, made with raspberry sherbet and ginger ale, is one of my favorite party beverages!

    If you love pink drinks, be sure to also check out my homemade, 3-ingredient Pink Drink recipe while you're here.

    Hosting a Party?

    This is the perfect birthday or baby shower punch but also makes a festive holiday punch too — think Easter and Valentine's Day. Go with pink or choose another color sherbet to match your party decor.

    My grandma used to make this sherbet punch for our annual holiday Christmas party. It's was something we always looked forward to and to this day I still think of her when I make it!

    The Easiest Party Punch

    This is my favorite go-to punch because it's just SO EASY. Two ingredients, literally just combine and serve.

    Raspberry Sherbet Pink Party Punch

    Fits any Occasion

    Are you planning an event with pink as the main color? This punch would fit right in then.

    I like to make it for birthday parties and holidays and have made it for baby showers too.

    The pink color makes this a festive and fun non-alcoholic party drink for baby or bridal showers, and gender reveals too. See tips below about changing the color!

    Raspberry Pink Sherbet Punch

    Simply Delicious

    Party guests always LOVE this punch. Kids go crazy for it and I notice even the adults go back for seconds. I never have a drop left whenever I serve it.

    ★ Ingredients You'll Need ★

    All you need is two ingredients!

    This punch is so easy to make. Just mix together raspberry sherbet and plain or raspberry ginger ale.

    If you can't find raspberry sherbet by itself, you can use rainbow and just use the pink flavor to give the punch a nice color. Honestly, all the flavors taste great but the color is key.

    Pink Punch Ingredients

    Also, it's not critical to use raspberry ginger ale. It does add nice color, but you can use regular ginger ale if you can't find raspberry.

    Add fresh raspberries as a garnish, if you'd like, but that's totally optional.

    ★ How to Make this Recipe ★

    This pink punch is made in large batches, so it's ideal for serving a crowd.

    Here's a look at how to prepare it.

    How to Make Pink Raspberry Sherbet Party Punch
    1. Allow sherbet to sit out and soften for about 5 minutes.
    2. Scoop sherbet into a larger punch bowl.
    3. Slowly pour in ginger ale until it reaches the top.
    4. Add fresh raspberries or other garnishes as desired.
    5. Reserve remaining ginger ale in the bottle to refill the punch bowl as needed.
    6. Ladle punch into drinking glasses to serve.

    Easy and always a hit!

    ★ Tips ★

    How to Change the Color of this Punch

    Match your party theme colors by changing up the color of the sherbet. You can use any color sherbet and pair it up with a clear or colored beverage that would complement the flavor and/or color of the sherbet.

    Experiment and see what you like!

    Here are some ideas for varying the color:

    Change up the color of sherbet, add Sprite (lemon-lime drink) or Ginger Ale and add garnish to complete the look to match your occasion.

    Green for St. Patrick's Day:
    Lime sherbet

    Birthdays:
    Rainbow sherbet + add a rainbow of fresh fruit for garnish

    Yellow for Easter:
    Lemon sherbet + try adding lemon slices

    Blue for Baby Shower or Gender Reveal:
    Blue Hawaiian Punch + blueberries

    Christmas:
    Lime sherbet + fresh cranberries

    ★ FAQs ★

    What flavor or sherbet goes well with punch?

    Sometimes it can be hard to find raspberry sherbet by itself. I actually find it at Dollar Tree believe it or not, but you can also just go with rainbow sherbet. The flavor is still great. If you want that pink color, you can use just the pink section of the rainbow sherbet.

    How to you add froth to punch?

    The frothy top *magically* appears when you combine the two ingredients.
    The bubbles in the ginger ale combine with the sherbet and it add a top layer of yummy and pretty forth without needing to do anything special Pretty cool!

    How can I make this punch more sophisticated in flavor?

    You can also add fruit juice or even fresh raspberries if you want but it's not required. Fruit juice adds a more complex flavor but does reduce the froth bit.
    I've added a little bit of pineapple juice to this. It was delicious! Lemonade is another great option. You can add other red or pink toned juices too.
    You want to just stay in the yellow or red family when adding any optional juices, otherwise the punch may turn an undesirable color.

    What does pink sherbet punch taste like?

    Both kids and adults typically love the taste. People seem to especially admire how nice the color of the pink sherbet looks. I personally love the frothy top and smooth chunks of sherbet. Fresh raspberries not only look nice as a garnish, you can eat them too.

    How can I make blue punch for a boy baby shower?

    Yes! This is a little harder to do because blue sherbet and blue drinks are somewhat difficult to find. However, not impossible! What I'd recommend is going for a white sherbet — either pineapple or lemon would work and then use a blue drink like blue raspberry Hawaiian punch. To get some bubbles, you can use a clear beverage like Sprite or ginger ale.

    What can you use to spike punch?

    Be sure to keep out of reach of children of course if you choose to spike this!
    Or I like to offer a bottle of vodka next to the punch for people to add their own spirit. Then they know how much alcohol is in their glass too.
    I highly recommend whipped cream vodka as a mix in. The creamy tastes goes amazing well with the tangy raspberry flavor!

    What can I use if I don't have a punch bowl?

    A punch bowl is pretty key for serving this punch. A glass punch bowl looks great and allows the layers to show through.
    You can use a standard punch bowl or a deep trifle bowl.

    Notes

    It's best to add sherbet scoops so that the punch is easier to serve but the block of sherbet will eventually soften enough to be broken apart with the ladle.

      How do I make this as an adult punch and what would the amount of liquor be that I would add to the sherbet and raspberry ginger ale?

        I would recommend vodka or whipped vodka. You can add as much or as little as you'd like, to taste or desired alcohol content. I would recommend adding 8oz to the entire punch, or 1/2 to 1oz per drink. Hope this helps!

      Ok, going with the whipped cream vodka on the side, as suggested. Thanks so much for the response. Trying this out for my daughter's Winter ONEderland birthday party this weekend.

      Would champagne work with this, as an option on the side?

        Sure, you could use champagne. I do think vodka would be a cleaner flavor though and the preferred choice in my opinion if you want to add an adult option due to the creamy nature of this punch

      What brand of raspberry sherbet do you use, and what store carries it? I have hinted all over town, and none of my stores have raspberry sherbet. Just raspberry sorbet. Thanks!

        Hi Sarah, the raspberry sherbet can be hard to find. I have found it at Walmart, Wegmans, and Dollar Tree (Believe it or not!). If you can only find sorbet, you can actually stir in few tbsp of half and half or heavy cream. The dairy is what creates the frothy top. You don't need a lot.

      Hello! I was wondering what else could be used instead of raspberry ginger ale (as this is not available in Australia!). Would it be okay to use normal ginger ale and add some raspberries to the mix? Sounds yummy!

        Hi Kate,
        This recipe is really very versatile. I've used just regular ginger ale before and I've also used ginger ale plus different types of juice before. Adding some juice gives it a richer, more opaque color which I like.

        Raspberries go well with almost any other kind of fruit so you could try just about any kind of juice plus regular ginger ale or even a lemon-lime soda like Sprite would be good.
