Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups orange juice preferably chilled
  • 2 cups pineapple juice fresh or bottled
  • 2 cups sparkling lemon-lime soda chilled, adds fizz
  • 1/2 cup lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 piece dry ice for fog effect, handle with gloves
  • garnishes as needed spooky garnishes (e.g., gummy worms, blackberries, lime wedges) for decoration

Equipment

  • Large punch bowl
  • Stirring spoon
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Ice tongs
  • Protective gloves or cloth for handling dry ice

Method
 

  1. Start by pouring the chilled orange juice and pineapple juice into a large punch bowl, creating a bright, colorful base.
  2. Add the freshly squeezed lime juice to the mixture to enhance the citrus flavor and a touch of brightness.
  3. Gently stir the mixture with a long spoon until all the juices are well combined, creating a uniform, vibrant liquid.
  4. Just before serving, pour the chilled sparkling lemon-lime soda into the punch to introduce bubbles and fizz for a lively texture.
  5. Carefully add a small piece of dry ice to the punch while wearing gloves or using tongs to handle it safely. This will create a bubbling, fog-like effect that adds to the spooky atmosphere.
  6. Garnish the punch with spooky decorations such as gummy worms draped over the edge, lime wedges, or blackberries, to give it a fun and eerie appearance.
  7. Serve the Monster Mash Punch immediately, enjoying the bubbling fog and vibrant colors as guests gather around the spooky spectacle.

Notes

Remember to handle dry ice with care and keep it out of reach of children. The fog effect lasts a few minutes, so serve promptly for maximum visual impact.
