HOW TO SERVE Easter Bunny Punch

Serve this drink right after you make it. The soda gives the drink a light fizz that will fade if it sits too long. Use clear glasses so the pink color shows. Add a long spoon and a straw in each glass. If you want a party display, set glasses on a tray with extra bunny marshmallows nearby. For a large group, use a punch bowl and add ice cream scoops one by one as guests serve themselves. If you want a grown-up version, serve in stemmed glasses for a nice look.

When you serve, remind guests to stir a little before sipping. This mixes the creamy ice cream with the fizzy soda and the lemonade. If you like to match other treats, place pastel cookies or small cakes near the drinks for a full spring table.

STORAGE & FREEZING : Easter Bunny Punch

This drink is best fresh. If you have leftover lemonade and soda, store them in the fridge and use within 2 to 3 days. If you have leftover scooped ice cream, place it in an airtight container and store it in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Do not store a mixed glass of Easter Bunny Punch in the fridge; it will lose its fizz and the ice cream will melt into a flat drink.

If you must keep a mixed drink for short time, place it in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes so it stays cold without fully freezing. For long term storage of the components, keep the soda sealed and the lemonade chilled. This way you can make fresh glasses fast when guests arrive.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

• Pair the punch with soft cakes or cupcakes that have pastel frosting.
• Add small cookies shaped like eggs to the tray for a matching look.
• Serve with a bowl of fresh berries on the side so guests can add fruit to their drink.
• Offer paper straws in pastel colors for a fun touch.

This drink also pairs well with light snacks such as finger sandwiches or mini quiches. If you want to try a different themed drink with festive color, the christmas morning punch has ideas for bright morning parties you can borrow for your brunch table.

VARIATIONS

• Fizzy fruit mix: Swap lemon-lime soda for a clear soda with fruit flavor for a new taste.
• Dairy-free: Use a dairy-free strawberry sorbet in place of ice cream for a vegan option.
• Less sweet: Use diet lemon-lime soda or sparkling water and taste before you serve.
• Tropical twist: Add a splash of pineapple juice to the lemonade for a light tropical note.
• Adult version: Add a small splash of light rum or vodka per glass for a grown-up twist.

FAQs

A: Yes. For a bowl, scoop many portions of ice cream into the bowl and pour lemonade and soda in batches. Keep extra ice cream nearby to add as guests serve.

MAKE-AHEAD TIPS FOR Easter Bunny Punch

• Chill the strawberry lemonade and lemon-lime soda for at least 2 hours before serving. Cold drinks taste fresher and keep the ice cream from melting fast.
• Scoop ice cream into a shallow container and press plastic wrap directly on the surface. Place back in the freezer. This helps you add scoops fast when guests come.
• Set out toppings in small bowls so guests can decorate their own glass. Keep soft candies in sealed bags until you serve.
• If you plan to use a punch bowl, measure and mix the right amounts of liquid so you can add them in quick batches. Add ice cream just before guests start to serve to keep the punch looking good.
• For a simple change, pre-mix lemonade with a bit of cold soda and store in the fridge, but do not add any ice cream until serving time.

Final note: Easter Bunny Punch is easy to make and fun to share. The parts are simple and the steps are quick. Use clear glasses to make it look bright and set out topping bowls so each person can add their own touch. This drink gives you a soft, fizzy, and sweet sip that fits any spring table.
