Grinch Punch Recipe

This festive rum and vodka punch comes together with just five ingredients. For the full list of ingredients and their measurements, see the recipe card at the bottom of the post. To make a batch of Grinch punch with alcohol for your next holiday get-together, gather the following ingredients:

  • Lime sherbet: This keeps the drink punch nice and cold so that you don’t need any ice, which would dilute the punch. It also adds a green color and yummy flavor.
  • Lemon lime soda: Adds some fizz to your punch. Sprite and 7Up are popular options.
  • Green fruit punch: For more green color and a fruity, tasty flavor.
  • Vodka: Use a mid-range vodka you like the flavor of. We prefer Tito’s.
  • White rum: Only use white or light rum, as dark rum will change the color and flavor of the punch.
