Adding Spirits to Your Sherbet Punch
If you want to give your sherbet punch a boozy-adult spin, it's super easy! Some great options include rum, vodka, and sparkling wine. If you're looking to add rum or vodka, you can use silver rum or plain vodka. However, you can also use flavored spirits, such as coconut, orange, vanilla, or raspberry, among many others.
Simply add 375mL of your favorite spirit to any nonalcoholic sherbet punch while using a half-liter less of any lemon-lime soda or ginger ale. For a sparkling sherbet punch, use only a single liter of any soda and add a 750mL bottle of prosecco. Other boozy touches to consider include raspberry liqueur or orange liqueur. You can add up to 12 ounces of liqueurs to your punch.
