A bubbling, creepy green concoction that makes kids squeal with pure joy. This slime-textured punch is fruity, refreshing, and perfectly balanced for Halloween fun.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 packet (3 oz) lime-flavored gelatin
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 4 cups lemon-lime soda
  • 2 cups pineapple juice
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 cup sugar (optional)
  • Green food coloring (gel or liquid, 3-4 drops to start)
  • 1 cup gummy worms or gummy eyeballs
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Dissolve the gelatin: Pour the lime gelatin powder into a medium mixing bowl. Add 1 cup of boiling water and whisk continuously for about 2 minutes until every grain is dissolved.
  2. Add the cold water: Pour in 1 cup of cold water and stir gently. Set aside for about 5 minutes to cool.
  3. Mix the juices: In a large punch bowl or pitcher, combine the pineapple juice and orange juice. Stir until well blended.
  4. Add the gelatin mixture: Pour the cooled gelatin mixture into the juice blend. Stir gently but thoroughly until completely combined.
  5. Sweeten if desired: If using sugar, add it now and stir until dissolved. Taste and adjust sweetness.
  6. Add the food coloring: Start with 3-4 drops of green food coloring and stir. Add more one drop at a time until you achieve the desired slime green color.
  7. Chill the base: Cover the punch bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.
  8. Add the soda and ice: About 30 minutes before serving, slowly pour in the lemon-lime soda, stirring gently. Add ice cubes.
  9. Add the gummy creatures: Drop the gummy worms or eyeballs into the punch. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to soften slightly.
  10. Serve with flair: Ladle the punch into cups, making sure each serving gets a few gummy creatures.

Notes

For the perfect slime texture, chill the base for at least 4 hours. The slime effect gets better as it sits. For a lower-sugar version, use sugar-free gelatin and diet soda. For a vegan version, substitute gelatin with agar-agar powder.
