Ingredients

Scale

For the punch:

  • 4 cups lemon-lime soda
  • 3 cups apple juice
  • 0.5 cup pineapple juice
  • 0.25 cup lime juice
  • 0.25 cup grenadine syrup
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar
  • Green food coloring (several drops)
  • Ice cubes (optional)

For the toxic waste foam:

  • 0.75 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Green food coloring (a few drops)

For the toxic waste decorations (optional):

  • Gummy worms
  • Gummy frogs
  • Gummy snakes


Instructions

  1. Make the punch: In a large punch bowl, combine the lemon-lime soda, apple juice, pineapple juice, lime juice, grenadine syrup, and granulated sugar. Stir well to mix the flavors completely.
  2. Add color: Add a few drops of green food coloring to the punch and stir until you achieve a vibrant toxic green color. It may take several drops to get a dark green hue rather than brown.
  3. Chill the punch: Add ice cubes to the punch bowl if desired to keep the punch chilled during serving.
  4. Prepare the toxic waste foam: In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream on high speed using an electric mixer for about 2 to 3 minutes until it begins to thicken.
  5. Sweeten and flavor the foam: Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream. Continue whipping until stiff peaks form, creating a thick and airy foam.
  6. Color the foam: Carefully add a few drops of green food coloring to the whipped cream and gently swirl it in so you get swirls of white and green without fully mixing the color.
  7. Assemble the punch cups: Ladle the green punch into individual cups or glasses, leaving some space at the top for the foam layer.
  8. Add foam topping: Carefully spoon the toxic waste foam on top of each cup to create a bubbling toxic waste effect.
  9. Add candy decorations: For extra spooky presentation, add gummy worms, gummy frogs, and gummy snakes either into the punch bowl or decorating each individual cup.
  10. Serve and enjoy: Serve the Toxic Waste Punch immediately at your Halloween party, delighting guests with its spooky look and delicious fruity flavor.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of green food coloring gradually to avoid turning the punch brownish.
  • Use chilled ingredients to keep the punch cold longer without watering it down with too much ice.
  • The whipped cream foam can be prepared shortly before serving to maintain its texture and appearance.
  • Substitute heavy cream with coconut cream for a dairy-free alternative, adjusting sweetness as needed.
  • Gummy candies can be omitted or replaced with other Halloween-themed edible decorations based on preference.
