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 I picked 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 this Canada 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!
What do you need to make 7UP Punch?
- 7UP® or Diet 7UP®
- Raspberry Sherbet: other fruity sherbets work great too!
- Lime juice: best if it is fresh squeezed lime instead of lime juice
- Lemon juice: best if it is fresh squeezed lemon instead of lemon juice
How to make 7UP Punch
It is ridiculously easy to make. I like to split the recipe when making it in a food processor or blender.
- Blend: Put half the tub of sherbet in with ¼ the bottle of 7UP®, and a tablespoon each of lemon and lime juice.
- Mix: Next dump in your punch bowl, and do the same with the other half. Then pour the remaining half a bottle of 7UP® over the top, give it a good stir.
- Serve: Right away or place in the freezer/refrigerator until ready.
What do you need to make Ginger Lemonade?
Wouldn’t this Ginger Lemonade make the perfect kid-friendly party drink or New Year’s Eve beverage?
Not only is it totally fun and delicious, but also less expensive then buying bottles of sparkling cider for the kids!
- Canada Dry Ginger Ale
- Lemonade of choice
How to make Ginger Lemonade:
- Punch Bowl: mix together and garnish with lemon! Serve over ice
- Pitcher: mix the two together, put in a pitcher , and garnish with lemon slices and serve chilled or over ice!

Notes

I love these Easy Peay Mealz
Tammy says
Could you use strawberry lemonade with the ginger ale?
Rachael says
I think that would taste awesome! I would definitely give it a try!
Cindy Perry says
My Mama used to make this punch for Christmas and we all loved it.
2 liter of Ginger Ale
Carton of lime sherbet
* She would make an ice ring in a bundt pan ahead of time with maraschino cherries in it to resemble “Holly Berries” to keep the punch cold. Makes a nice looking punch.
Rachael says
How fun! What a great idea. I love the holly berries!
Lianne Hopper says
Love this idea! Thank you!
Jamie @ Love Bakes Good Cakes says
Fruity and perfect for summer!
Deb@ Cooking on the Front Burner says
I love how refreshing these look – perfect for summer sipping!

I used to love punch with sherbert in it growing up, and I haven’t had it forever! I love that you added fresh lemon and lime juice for a big pop of citrus. This sounds so delicious!
Rosie says
Love these fabulous drinks ideas! What a joy it is to read a drinks recipe from a fellow “tee total-er.” I can’t tell you the looks I get when I try to explain to people that I don’t drink alcohol. Neither I nor my husband drink, and I swear we feel like Martians at times 🙂 Could I ask what you mean by sherbet please? It looks in your photos as if it’s a frozen substance, ala ice cream? Here in Scotland sherbet is a powder in a packet that kids dip lolly pops in 🙂 Thank you again for sharing, sending heaps of hugs xx
Rachael says
Yes, we can be considered alien at times, huh! Haha Yes sherbert, also called sorbet sometimes, is like ice cream here. It is usually dairy free though, so it has a bit icier consistency.
Jaime Williamson says
With a 2 liter of 7Up and one container of Sherbet, how many people will that serve?
Rachael says
It depends on the cup sizes, but I would say it is plenty for 8-10 people
