Ingredients
Scale
Liquid Ingredients
- 4 cups Hawaiian Punch (Fruit Juicy Red flavor, chilled)
- 4 cups silver rum (or unflavored vodka, chilled)
- 3 cups 100% pineapple juice (chilled)
- 1½ cups pulp-free orange juice (not from concentrate, chilled)
- 3 cups ginger ale soda (chilled)
Serving Ingredients
- 2 cups ice (for serving)
- Navel orange slices (⅛–¼ inch thick)
- Lime slices (⅛–¼ inch thick)
- Strawberry slices (¼ inch thick)
- Pineapple chunks (1-inch size)
- Maraschino cherries (juices drained)
Instructions
- Combine liquids: In a 1½-gallon drink dispenser equipped with a spigot, pour in the chilled Hawaiian Punch, silver rum, pineapple juice, orange juice, and ginger ale. Gently stir the mixture to combine the ingredients without overmixing, as this helps maintain the ginger ale’s carbonation for a refreshing fizz.
- Add ice and garnish: Just before serving, add ice cubes and optional fruit garnishes—including orange, lime, strawberry slices, pineapple chunks, and maraschino cherries—to the drink dispenser. This prevents dilution of the punch and keeps the fruit fresh and visually appealing.
Notes
- For a non-alcoholic version, omit the silver rum and substitute with additional ginger ale or sparkling water.
- Use chilled ingredients to ensure the punch is served cold without excessive ice melting and diluting the flavors.
- Fresh fruit slices add a beautiful presentation and subtle natural sweetness to the punch.
- This recipe serves about 10 people, ideal for parties and gatherings.
- Adjust the amount of rum to taste for a milder or stronger punch.
