Notes
- Add the carbonated ingredients just before serving to keep the punch bubbly.
- Chill the juices and alcohol beforehand to reduce the need for extra ice.
- For a sweeter punch, replace the sparkling water with lemon-lime soda.
- For a less-sweet version, use extra sparkling water.
- Large ice cubes melt more slowly and help prevent the punch from becoming watered down.
- If using prosecco, add it right before serving for the best fizz.
