Instructions
1. Combine the Base:
In a large punch bowl or a pretty glass pitcher, combine the chilled lemonade, pineapple juice, and blue Hawaiian Punch. Stir gently to mix and create a uniform, beautiful blue color.
2. The Grand Finale:
Just before your guests arrive, slowly pour in the chilled lemon-lime soda. This preserves the bubbles for a sparkling presentation. Add the ice cubes or frozen lemonade cubes.
3. Serve with Style:
For an extra festive touch, rim your glasses by dipping the rims in a little lemon juice or water, then into white sanding sugar or edible glitter. Ladle or pour the punch into glasses and garnish with a lemon slice or a few frozen blueberries.
Serve immediately and enjoy the sparkling, merry magic!
Chef’s Notes & Variations
-
For an Adult Version: To transform this into a festive cocktail, add 1 cup of coconut rum, white rum, or vodka to the base mixture in Step 1.
-
Make-Ahead Tip: You can mix the lemonade, pineapple juice, and blue drink base several hours in advance. Keep it chilled in the refrigerator. Add the soda and ice only at the very last moment to maintain the signature fizz.
-
Fruit Ring Ice Mold: For a spectacular, non-diluting ice block, create a fruit ring in a Bundt pan with lemon slices and berries, fill with lemonade or water, and freeze.
