Ingredients

  • 2 2/3 fl oz cranberry 100% juice blend (with grape, apple, and pear)
  • 2 2/3 fl oz apple juice or apple cider
  • 1 1/3 cups ginger ale (or 2/3 cup ginger ale and 1 1/3 fl oz aged rum)
  • Dry ice (optional)
  • Candy eyeballs, plastic spiders, gummy worms for garnish

Instructions

  1. Chill all the ingredients before serving.
  2. In a punch bowl, combine the cranberry juice blend, apple juice/cider, and ginger ale. For the alcoholic variation, add the aged rum to the mixture.
  3. Stir the punch well and garnish with dry ice (if using) and optional spooky garnishes.
  4. If serving the alcoholic punch, ladle out a 1 cup (8 ounce) serving and add 1 to 2 ounces of rum.
  5. When handling the dry ice, ensure to follow the safety instructions provided. Use tongs to add chunks of dry ice to the punch bowl, creating a smoking effect. Take caution not to drink the dry ice or allow kids to do so.
  6. For kids, it's best to ladle out punch by skimming off the top, while adults can enjoy a small chunk of dry ice in their glass, ensuring it has fully disappeared before drinking.
