Serving Suggestions and Storage
This pineapple punch recipe makes approximately 7 cups, it’s perfect for a pitcher full of drinks served to a small group. If you’ll be serving a large group, simply double or triple all the ingredients and consider having the mixture in a large punch bowl or 2-gallon drink dispenser. Leave out cups and let guests serve themselves.
Since you’re using a carbonated beverage, I don’t recommend making the punch ahead of time, whoever it is best to chill all the ingredients beforehand and then adding the soda right before serving. Once mixed, enjoy within a couple hours. As time goes on, it will lose its fizz.
If you’ve got leftovers, freeze the punch in an ice cube tray. This way, you’ll have flavored ice cubes for future drinks!
