    Just before serving, add dry ice using proper handling precautions and a setup that keeps the dry ice inaccessible to guests. Add more only as needed for the effect.

    Keep dry ice away from individual serving cups and wait until all dry ice has completely sublimated before consuming any punch that could contain it.

💡 Tips for Success

• Make it extra green: Add food coloring a few drops at a time until you get the shade you want.
• Keep everything chilled: Refrigerate the soda and pineapple juice before mixing to keep the punch cold and bubbly.
• Add the sherbet last: The sherbet creates a fun, foamy top, so add it right before serving.
• Where to find dry ice: You can often find dry ice near the front of grocery stores. Ask a store employee for assistance locating and handling it.
• Make it kid-friendly: Use ginger ale or lemon-lime soda and skip the alcohol. This is a fun option for Halloween parties and school celebrations, provided the dry ice is handled and contained safely.
