Punch - Vegan recipe hero image

I remember the first time I made this punch for a gathering—it was a hot summer day, and everyone was feeling a bit sluggish.

As soon as I brought out this vibrant drink, it was like a wave of energy swept through the room.

I like to think of it as a hug in a glass!

The best part?

It’s super easy to whip up and you can customize it with your favorite seasonal fruits.

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

I love using fresh juices because they really brighten up the flavor. If you’re in a pinch, store-bought juices work too, but try to get ones without added sugars. For the fruits, you can mix and match based on what’s in season or what you have in your fridge!

Tips & Notes

  • For extra flair, you can freeze some of the fruit into ice cubes and use those instead of regular ice—no dilution and they look gorgeous!
  • If you want a little kick, you can add a splash of ginger ale or a hint of fresh ginger to the mix.

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes, I like to add in some pomegranate seeds for an extra burst of color and flavor.
  • If I want to make it more festive, I’ll throw in a splash of non-alcoholic sparkling wine.

Storage & Freezing

Keep any leftover punch in a sealed pitcher in the fridge for up to a day. Just remember to add more sparkling water to revive the fizz when you serve it again!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this punch ahead of time?

Absolutely! Just prepare everything except the sparkling water and add it just before serving to keep it fizzy. It can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
