Tips For Making Bubbly Witches Brew Punch
You can lighten-up this punch recipe by using diet ginger ale or the lower-sugar version. I always make the lightened-up version and it’s still a hit and turns out delicious.
I’ve used food coloring to make this punch a deeper green color, but you can leave that out if you are leery of using artificial color. I’ve done it both ways.
Garnish Bubbly Witches Brew with spooky eyes (you can find these plastic eyeballs at Target, Michaels, and most craft stores) and dry ice.
*A tip on the dry ice: If you can find the dry ice chips, use those. They are better to work with than the blocks and you can slowly add them in to keep the smokey effect going strong.

You garnish with dry ice?
Amee Livingston
Yes, we put in the dry ice right before the party. I love the dry ice chips. You can slowly add them to keep the smokey effect going.
Boyd Kobe
Thanks for all of these great ideas… I am so gonna have fun serving these non-alcoholic drinks for a kids party.
Joyce Greenberg
I am having an adult party and love the punch idea, but what type of alcohol would be best with this punch? Also is is safe to put the dry ice into the punch? in past parties I have put the dry ice on the bottom of the caldron then the punch bowl on top, but I have to continue putting the dry ice in to make it smoky. Where do you find the dry ice chips?
Amee Livingston
Hi Joyce! A pineapple vodka would be a fun option. I like to serve the booze on the side and let my guest DIY the cocktails.
sammie
how much vodka do you use? and do you put in another bowl?
Amee Livingston
Hi Sammie! I like to serve the vodka on the side and let the guest spike their own. That way they can adjust to personal preference. 🙂
sammie
we are mixing it do you suggest two cups in the brew?
GERI
I cannot for the life of me find lime sorbet, sherbert, ice cream…None and I have called 10 grocery stores. Anything you suggest using instead?
Amee Livingston
Hi Geri! It’s lime sherbert and I know that Publix, Kroger, and Walmart carry it in the ice cream section. Do you have one of those stores near you?
Shirley
Easy to make ! I cut the pineapple juice in half yo decrease the sweetness and added whipped vodka for our adult Halloween party. It was a big hit!
Amee Livingston
So glad you enjoyed the recipe, Shirley! Thanks for the great feedback!
Morgan
Hi there,
Where do you find the ice chips? Do you put them into the drink or in a separate container?
Amee Livingston
Hi Morgan! I’ve always gotten them at our the grocery store. A lot of grocery stores carry them. I think Costco and Walmart have them, too. Yes, I put it right in the punch, a little at a time, to keep the bubbly effect going. Just be careful not to serve any dry ice with the punch.
Brandy
I know food coloring is optional but did you use any for this picture?
Amee Livingston
Hi Brandy! Yes, I did use a few drops of green food coloring for the photo.
Brandy Sager
Awesome
Tiffany
Can I replace regular sherbet for lime sherbet. Can’t find lime sherbet anywhere?
Amee Livingston
Hi Tiffany! Yes, you can use other flavors but it will affect the color. Do you have a Publix nearby? They usually carry the lime.
Sierra
Up to how long in advance can I prepare this ?
Amee Livingston
Hi Sierra! You can mix the pineapple and lime juice together ahead of time, but I would wait until right before serving to add the ginger ale and sherbert.
Rhonda Messercola
Hi I’m in Australia and don’t think we get anything called lime sherbert here, (except for sherbert powder in small quantities). So I’ve just had to google it, is it like a sorbet ?
Thank you !
Amee Livingston
Hi Rhonda! Sherbert is similar to sorbet but it has a little cream added.
