Unveiling the Magic: Your New Favorite Peppermint Ice Cream Holiday Punch

This Peppermint Ice Cream Punch is the perfect festive drink for holiday parties! It’s creamy, bubbly, minty, and super easy to make — no cooking needed. Just mix, scoop, and serve. Kids and adults love it, and it comes together in minutes!

Ingredients

Scale
  • ¼ teaspoon peppermint extract

  • 15 oz vanilla ice cream (good quality works best)

  • 3 tablespoons milk (whole milk for a richer texture)

  • 1.5 liters lemon-lime soda

  • Crushed peppermint candy (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  • Step 1: Prepare the Punch Bowl

    • Grab a large punch bowl or beverage dispenser.

    • Make sure it’s clean and ready to use.


    Step 2: Mix the Punch

    1. Pour the lemon-lime soda into the bowl.

    2. Add the peppermint extract and milk.

    3. Stir gently to combine all the flavors.

    4. Add scoops of vanilla ice cream into the punch and lightly stir to create a creamy, fizzy mixture.


    Step 3: Serve

    1. Pour the punch into glasses.

    2. Add an extra scoop of ice cream to each glass.

    3. Sprinkle crushed peppermint candy on top for a festive look!


    Step 4: Enjoy!

    • Serve each drink with both a spoon and a straw so everyone can sip the punch and enjoy the ice cream.

    • Best served immediately while bubbly and creamy.

Notes

  • Don’t over-stir — you want the ice cream to stay a little fluffy.

  • For a stronger mint flavor, add a tiny bit more peppermint extract (a little goes a long way!).

  • Want color? Add a few drops of red food coloring for a pink Christmas punch.

  • Use chilled soda so the drink stays cold and frothy.
