# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It comes together in literally ten minutes but looks like you spent all day planning
  • The colors are absolutely gorgeous in that clear glass punch bowl your grandmother gave you
  • Kids and adults both get excited about the floating fruit slices
02 -
  • Add the sodas last or you will lose all the carbonation before anyone even arrives
  • The fruit slices will get soggy if they sit too long so add them right before guests walk through the door
  • This actually tastes better after about fifteen minutes when all the flavors have time to make friends
03 -
  • Use a ladle with a pour spout to avoid drips down the side of your punch bowl
  • Keep extra soda on hand to top off the bowl halfway through the party when the bubbles start fading
