Notes
- Make sure all ingredients are well-chilled before mixing. This helps keep your punch cold without needing excessive ice, which can dilute the flavors. For a festive touch, go for clear glass or plastic cups to show off the vibrant green color. Mason jars or punch bowls also work well for larger gatherings. Add colorful garnish like strawberries or use maraschino cherries for Grinch "hearts." Add a sprig of fresh mint or a candy cane for a festive touch. Rimming the glasses with sugar really takes this up a notch but do this just before serving so the sugars don't dissolve. If you're serving the punch over an extended period, consider using a punch bowl with an ice ring or a large ice block to keep the drink cold without dilution. If mixing in advance, combine all of the ingredients except for the soda. Add this just before serving so it will be nice and bubbly. You can easily double or triple this recipe for a crowd. Make Grinch punch with alcohol for the grown-ups. Storage - this punch can be refrigerated for 3-4 days, but will lose the carbonation.
