✅ Expert tips
- Use high-quality ice cream: The ice cream is a key ingredient in the punch, so make sure to use a high-quality brand that is rich and creamy.
- Soften the ice cream before adding it to the punch: This will make it easier to scoop and incorporate into the punch. Let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before using.
- Chill all the ingredients: The punch will be more refreshing if all the ingredients are chilled before use, especially the soda or sparkling water.
- Use a large pitcher or bowl: The punch can be quite voluminous, so make sure to use a large enough container to accommodate all the ingredients.
- Don’t add too much soda or water at once: Start by adding a small amount of soda or water to the punch and gradually add more until you achieve the desired consistency.
- Consider the color of the punch: If you want a bright, colorful punch, consider using brightly-colored ice cream, fruit juices, or adding fresh fruit slices or garnishes.
- Keep the punch cold: To prevent the ice cream from melting too quickly, keep the punch cold by placing the pitcher or bowl in a larger container filled with ice.
