Pink Party Punch that Packs a Punch!
This Pink Party Punch has been a staple at many of the parties I’ve thrown over the years. It’s simple to make and packs a punch (pardon the pun)! I’ve made this party punch for baby showers, bridal showers, summertime BBQ’s, family gatherings, birthdays, and more. It goes well with any occasion and is a great summertime poolside drink!
Here I made the pink party punch for a PIE-oneer Day Party I hosted for a Utah state holiday.
Summertime or Anytime Punch
Everyone that’s had this pink party punch at any of my gatherings has asked for the recipe so I am finally getting around to sharing it. It’s very easy to make and you can substitute a variety of things depending on what you have on hand or can buy at the store. I will share some of the variations in my helpful hints below. Use this recipe anytime of the year or for any gathering you have.
The Recipe
Pink Party Punch
A refreshing party punch that can be served at any party or gathering and is perfect for summertime entertaining or any poolside party!
Ingredients
- 1 can frozen limeade concentrated drink mix
- 1 can frozed raspberry lemonade concentrated drink mix
- 1 container powdered lemonade drink mix 19 oz (I use country time)
- 2 -2 liter bottles of sprite or 7-up (or any generic brand is fine)
- 1 bag ice (I buy a bag at the grocery store)
- 2 lemons (sliced)
- 2 limes (sliced)
- 1 cup frozen raspberries
Instructions
-
In a large punch bowl or drink dispenser add the frozen limeade, frozen raspberry lemonade, powdered lemonade mix, and sprite or 7-up. Stir until the powdered drink mix is dissolved and everything has mixed together well.
-
Slice the lemons and limes and add those and the frozen raspberries to the punch mix.
-
Dump in about 1/2 to 3/4ths of the bag of ice. If there's room in your punch bowl or container, you can add more of the ice.
-
The punch is very strong when you first mix it up but some of the ice will melt and dilute it a bit until it tastes perfect.
Helpful Tips and Variations
*You can substitute any kind of frozen lemonade, pink lemonade, or limeade. I usually just buy what the store has but my favorite combination is the pink lemonade and limeade. You can do two of the same as well. They all work! *If you can’t find the country time powdered lemonade mix, you can use the pink lemonade mix or a generic brand if it’s available. *I usually double this recipe depending on how many people I have coming but this recipe makes quite a lot and depending on how much your guest drink it can serve anywhere 20-30 people. It’s easy to mix a second batch right in the punch bowl or drink dispenser. *I add about half the ice in and then add more if needed. It’s a little strong at first and the ice will dilute it down. * The sliced lemons, limes, and raspberries are optional and give the punch some color. *You can add sherbet ice cream to this and it becomes a frappe! *Feel free to vary this recipe! I do it all the time and it always comes out great!

Looks perfect for summer! Thanks for joining us Holly!
Thank you Ashley! Can’t wait to try your recipe! Thank you for inviting me to join the hop!
This punch looks like the perfect summertime treat (along with that cake ha ha). Now I have to dig out my drink dispenser!
Thank you Shauna! It’s such a great party drink! Can’t wait to try yours too!
Hi Holly! Can you tell me if I can add sherbet and use my drink dispenser? My Daughter-in-law’s baby shower is coming up and she wants sherbet in the punch recipe. Thanks for your input!
Hi Lori,
Yes you can add sherbet to this! It’s called Frappe when you add the sherbet! It should work in the drink dispenser but when I add sherbet I usually use a punch bowl so you can get some the sherbet in the cup with the drink.
How big is the “container” of lemonade?
Country Time 19 oz
I’ll update that on the blog!
Thank you! Is the raspberry lemonade what gives it the color in your picture? Having a hard time finding frozen raspberry lemonade so wondering if I should use the pink lemonade powder mix for the color? I just love how pale it is in your picture. Thoughts? Guidance? Thanks!
