🍹 Easter Bunny Punch 🐰
Ingredients
4 cups cold lemon-lime soda (such as Sprite or 7-Up)
2 cups cold pineapple juice
1 cup cold orange juice
1/2 cup coconut milk (optional, for a tropical twist)
1 teaspoon almond extract (optional, for added depth)
1 cup vanilla ice cream (for "bunny tail" floats)
Fresh mint leaves or edible flowers (for garnish, optional)
Maraschino cherries (for "bunny noses," optional)
Instructions
Prepare the Base : In a large pitcher, combine the lemon-lime soda, pineapple juice, and orange juice. Stir gently to mix without creating too many bubbles. If using coconut milk and almond extract, whisk them in for a creamy, aromatic touch.
Chill the Mixture : Place the pitcher in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to ensure the punch is icy cold when served.
Assemble the Bunny Floats : Scoop small balls of vanilla ice cream using a melon baller or teaspoon to create "bunny tails." Gently drop one or two scoops into each serving glass.
Pour the Punch : Slowly pour the chilled punch over the ice cream in each glass, allowing the creamy float to rise to the top.
Garnish Creatively : Add a maraschino cherry on top of each ice cream float to resemble a bunny nose. Tuck a small sprig of mint or an edible flower beside the float for ears or decoration.
Serve with Style : Arrange the glasses on a tray and serve immediately for a fun and festive presentation.
