Method
Step 1: Chill Everything
- Before mixing, make sure your soda, juice, and coconut milk are well chilled — this keeps the punch frosty longer without needing excess ice.
Step 2: Combine the Creamy Base
- In a large punch bowl or blender, combine coconut milk, pineapple juice, and coconut extract. Stir or blend until smooth and creamy.
Step 3: Add the Ice Cream
- Scoop the vanilla ice cream into the mixture — it will float and slowly melt, creating that frothy “snowball” effect.
Step 4: Pour in the Soda
- Gently pour lemon-lime soda over the mixture right before serving. Stir lightly to combine while keeping the fizzy bubbles intact.
Step 5: Serve
- Ladle into chilled glasses. Garnish with whipped cream, a sprinkle of coconut flakes, and a cherry or mint leaf for a festive finish.
- 💡 Pro Tip: For an extra fancy touch, rim your glasses with shredded coconut and white sugar before serving!
