Gummy worms for garnishing
Gummy eyeballs for garnishing: I use these.

Substitutions and Additions

Switch The Sherbet: Feel free to make your sherbet drink with your favorite flavored scoops. My orange sherbet punch and rainbow sherbet punch recipes are also fun and festive.
Swap The Soda: Instead of Sprite, you can use 7Up, Sierra Mist, Ginger Ale, or a generic brand lemon-lime soft drink.
Cut The Calories: To lighten up your lemon lime punch, you can use diet soda, seltzer, or sparkling water.
Add Some Alcohol: Adding alcohol to your punch bowl is a perfect way to get any adult Halloween party started. Try spiking your bubbly beverage with a bit of rum, vodka, Prosecco, or Champagne.

How to Make Halloween Sherbet Punch

Pour Into The Punch Bowl: Pour the Hawaiian Punch, Sprite, and Pineapple juice into the punch bowl.
Scoop The Sherbet: Add scoops of sherbet on top of the liquid.
Pro Tip: Some of it will begin to break down; however, it should float on the surface well.
Serve: Garnish with candy and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Tips For Making Halloween Sherbet Punch

To drain the pineapple juice, open the can slightly enough for the juice to drain without the pineapple coming out.
Do not serve this punch with ice. The sherbet will cool the punch well, and the ice will not mix well with the sherbet.
The worms and eyeballs should lay on top of the sherbet. However as the sherbets dissolve into the punch, they will sink further down.
I like to lay the worms and eyeballs on larger chunks of sherbet so they stay afloat longer.
You can add food coloring for a more intense color.

How to Store Halloween Sherbet Punch

To Store: You can store any leftover punch in the fridge. The carbonation will diminish, but it will still taste delicious! You can always add a bit more soda to bring back the fizz.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is sherbet?

Sherbet is not quite ice cream and not quite sorbet. It is a frozen treat made with fruit juice, sugar, and water, but it also includes dairy—usually milk or buttermilk. This gives it a slightly creamier texture than sorbet and its signature pastel color.

Does sherbet contain dairy?

Yes, sherbet does contain a small amount of milk product. But it’s not nearly as much as you find in ice cream. That’s why the texture and flavor of sherbet is more like a fruit sorbet (which contains NO milk)

Can I serve my punch in a pitcher?

Punch bowls are easier for scooping out sherbet, but if you prefer a pitcher, you certainly can use one. You can get creative and serve your punch in science beakers or a black cauldron with some dry ice.

Tips:

Do not serve this punch with ice. The sherbet will cool the punch really well and the ice will not mix well with the sherbet.
The worms and eyeballs should lay on top of the sherbet. However as the sherbets dissolve into the punch, they will sink further down.
