White grape juice, ginger ale, and lemon-lime soda combine for a classy and easy punch. Throw some frozen grapes in there for a little extra panache, or some vodka or gin if you really want to get the party going.

common recipe questions
What type of event is this punch suitable for?
This punch is perfect for any party or gathering where you want to serve a classy and refreshing non-alcoholic drink.
Can I use a different type of juice instead of white grape juice?
You can experiment with different fruit juices like apple or pear juice to create different flavor combinations.
Can I use diet soda in this punch?
You can use diet soda if you prefer a lower sugar option. Just make sure it complements the other flavors in the punch.
Is it necessary to use all three types of soda in this punch?
Using all three types of soda adds complexity to the punch, but you can customize it by using just one or two types if desired.
Can I add fresh fruit to the punch?
Adding fresh fruit like sliced citrus fruits, berries, or grapes can make it more like a sangria if desired.
What type of glassware should I use to serve this punch?
You can use a punch bowl with ladle for a classic presentation, or individual glasses with ice for a more modern approach.
Can I make this punch ahead of time?
It's best to combine the ingredients just before serving to maintain the carbonation of the punch.
Can I put alcohol in this punch?
Alcohol is optional in this punch but can be added to kick up the party atmosphere. Vodka or gin are great choices as they add alcohol without affecting the flavor of the punch too much.
How can I make this punch more visually appealing?
You can garnish the punch bowl with fresh mint leaves, edible flowers, or citrus slices.
Can I serve this punch over ice?
Yes, serving the punch over ice can help keep it cool and dilute the flavors slightly if desired. If you don't want to dilute the flavors, use ice cubes made from white grape juice.
Can I make a large batch of this punch for a crowd?
You can easily double or triple the recipe to serve a larger group of people. Just make sure to have a big enough punch bowl!

This punch was a hit at the baby shower I hosted. It was super easy to make and tasted great. It has a very refreshing taste. I put all of the bottles in the freezer for about an hour and took them out just as they started to get slushy. I also froze some of the white grape juice in ice cube trays and added them to the punch.

Confused how this punch is considered bland, I found it to be quite good. Maybe brand of ingredients used? My grocery store has their own brand of white grape juice that is really good so that's what I used.

Needs more flavor. The white grape juice is just too bland. I'm not sure what else to use in it though? Any suggestions?

I was afraid this would go flat in the time it took to chill so I froze the white grape juice in ice cube trays and then mixed it up shortly before serving. Worked well and didn't go flat before it was gone.
If you need to make a ton of clear punch and cheap - this is a good recipe. Unfortunately, the taste is lackluster. You also can't mix anything up more than a few hours ahead of time as it goes flat fairly quickly.
