What You Need to Make Candy Cane Punch:

  • 2-liters lemon-lime soda – 7UP, Sprite or club soda would work
  • Flavored Candy Canes – The more flavorful and colorful, the better.
  • Glasses – You want glasses tall enough to hold the candy cane without too much of it sticking out.
  • Ice Cubes – Because it tastes better when it’s chilled

Watch the candy cane as it fizzes and melts into your soda.

Note: Be sure to remove any small pieces of candy cane prior to drinking as they can be a choking hazard.

This Candy Cane Punch recipe may just be the easiest Christmas Punch to make for the holiday season. It requires just 2-ingredients and is so fun to make, even the kids will love it!

Ingredients
 

  • 2 Liter 7UP
  • Flavored Candy Canes
  • Ice Cubes

Instructions
 

  • Open the 2-Liter of 7UP and pour some into a glass filling it about half full. You do not want to overfill the cup and I’ll explain why below.
  • Now, add a candy cane to the glass. Just 1 will do. Allow this to sit in the glass for about 5 minutes. You will notice the 7UP starts to fizz (which is why you don’t want to overfill the glass) and the 7UP will start to change color and flavor!
  • Once the candy cane is done fizzing, fill the glass the rest of the way full. You can pop in some ice cubes and serve it up cold!
  • Serve and enjoy!
