Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup orange juice (freshly squeezed or store-bought)
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 1 cup cranberry juice
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 2 cups ginger ale (or sparkling water)
  • 1 cup strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 1 cup orange slices
  • 1 cup lemon slices
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Wash all the fruits thoroughly. Slice the oranges and lemons into thin circles. Hull the strawberries and cut them into halves. Cut the pineapple into small chunks.
  2. Use a citrus juicer to extract fresh juice from the oranges and lemons. Youโ€™ll need about 1 cup of orange juice and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice.
  3. In a large pitcher, mix the orange juice, pineapple juice, cranberry juice, and lemon juice. Stir well to combine.
  4. Pour in the ginger ale and give it a gentle stir. Be careful not to stir too muchโ€”you want to keep the bubbles intact!
  5. Transfer the punch to a large bowl or drink dispenser. Add the sliced fruits and pineapple chunks.
  6. Fill the bowl with ice cubes to keep the punch chilled. Optionally, freeze some of the fruit in ice cubes beforehand for decoration.
  7. If serving adults, add your choice of alcoholโ€”start with a cup and adjust to taste.
  8. Ladle the fruit punch into cups or glasses, making sure each serving gets some fruit. Garnish with mint leaves if desired.
