Ingredient Notes

  • Fruit – This uses a mixture raspberries and pineapples.

Tips For Success

  • This punch gets better as the sherbet melts. So prepare it a couple of minutes before serving.
  • Freeze a few extra scoops and add to the punch if the sherbet foams melts or the scoops are all taken.
  • The rainbow punch will become sweeter if you add more sherbet, so add more juice as well.
  • You can also simply spoon the sherbet into the punch bowl, no need to freeze it first if you don’t want sherbet balls.
  • Feel free to freeze the fruit before adding so that the punch stays cool.
  • Adjust the quantity of ingredients to suit your taste.

Delicious Variations

  • Vary the fruit – Use which ever colorful fruit you like and have to hand. 
  • Vary the main drink – feel free to use other family friendly drinks like lemon-lime soda, sprite etc.
  • Garnish it – Top the sliders with cream cheese frosting or simple sugar frosting and top with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or crushed candy or crushed graham crackers for added flavor and lots of fun. 

Budget-Friendly Tips 

  • Use leftover fruit – Freeze chopped leftover fruit till needed and add to punch bowl. 
  • Canned fruit – Used canned fruit as this will be cheaper than fresh.

Storage

  • Prep ahead – Mix the juice and the fruit a few hours ahead of time in the punch bowl and keep chilled. Freeze sherbet ahead of time. But only add the sherbet about 2 minutes before serving.

FAQs

What Is Sherbet?

Halfway between ice cream and sorbet, sherbet is a frozen treat made with water, sugar, fruit juice and milk. Sometimes egg whites are added While the dairy content is low (typically no more than 2 percent), it gives sherbet its signature pastel color and slightly creamy texture.

Can I Serve It In A Pitcher Instead?

Absolutely – Punch bowls are easier for scooping out sherbet, but if you prefer the pitcher you certainly can.

Can You Lighten This Up?

Absolutely, just go for diet version of drinks instead.
