How to Make Ocean Water Punch
Step 1: In a large punch bowl, add the vanilla ice cream.
Step 2: Drop a small amount of blue gel food coloring over the ice cream.
Step 3: Pour in the coconut water.
Step 4: Slowly add the Sprite.
Step 5: Stir gently to combine, being careful not to lose too much fizz.
Step 6: Add more blue coloring if needed to reach your desired “ocean” shade.
Step 7: Toss in some gummy candies, and add more to individual cups when serving.
Tips for the Best Punch
- Add the Sprite last to keep it nice and fizzy.
- Stir gently so the ice cream creates that pretty float effect.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Fun Variations
- Use lime sherbet instead of ice cream- this gives it a stronger citrus flavor, but it may turn the punch more of a teal color.
- Switch up the gummies. Can’t find Swedish Fish and Friends? Try regular swedish fish, gummy sharks, or other gummy ocean creatures.
- Make it tropical- add a splash of pineapple juice for a fruity twist.
This Ocean Water Punch is one of those recipes that’s just as fun to look at as it is to drink. It is simple, festive, and guaranteed to be a hit with both kids and adults!
