Canada Dry Ginger Ale and 7UP Punch Recipes

I don’t drink alcohol, but that doesn’t mean I want to celebrate the holidays without a fun drink.

So I decided to use Canada Dry Ginger Ale® and 7UP® to create 2 super easy, very tasty, in fact, totally delicious, fun drinks.

With a bonus that they are both kid friendly and adult approved. Oh, and did I mention budget friendly? Basically they are perfect for a holiday party!

Two easy to make punches that will leave impress your friends and family! Making these brings out a refreshing new taste!

If you love specialty drinks like we do in our family you will love this Orange Cream Soda, Frozen (Non-alcoholic) Mango Margaritas, Mango Black Tea Lemonade or Virgin Michelada.

When I was growing up my mom used to make us 7UP® floats with sherbet in them! I loved them, and have carried on the tradition on special occasions with my kids.

We all love them, and so I thought the same idea could be applied to a holiday party punch bowl for a light, refreshing, and easy to make beverage.

Instead of making individual floats, I could make a punch!

So Ipicked up 7UP®, raspberry sherbet, and some fresh limes and lemons, and whipped up this little beauty.

Trust me, every kid at your party will love thisCanada Dry Ginger Ale® and 7UP® Punch Recipes that is slushy, refreshing, drink!

Make these drinks with a complete meal

These are simple and irresistible drinks that we love to have on special occasions. Even if that is a good grade in school or a goal at the latest soccer game.

We are a celebrating type of family and love how quick and easy these two drinks come together. And even better that they taste delicious!

Chicken is a favorite in our house especially preferred for by my kiddos. I would love to have these punches with this Creamy Lemon Chicken and Asparagus. It is light and flavorful and pairs well with these punches.

My kids choice of meal with these punches are Chicken Nugget Sheet Pan Dinner or Instant Pot Spaghetti and Meat Sauce. Both totally kid friendly and classic meals!
