- ¼ cup blue curaçao
- 1 cup white rum
- 2 cups lemonade
- 4 lemon slices
- 8 maraschino cherries
Directions:
- Put ¼ cup ice in each glass, then add a splash of blue curaçao, ¼ cup rum, and another ¼ cup ice. (The ice helps with the ombré.) Pour over ½ cup lemonade.

- 1 pineapple juice can 12oz, thawed in the fridge
- 6-8 scoops Raspberry Sherbet Ice cream or any flavor you have available
- Fresh or frozen raspberries for garnish
- Pineapple slices for garnish
Directions:
- Pre-scoop ice cream and place on a baking dish lined with plastic wrap. Freeze and add ice cream just before serving so it remains frozen in the punch.
- In a punch bowl, combine 2 juice cans. Pour in Sierra Mist and Club Soda and gently stir until combined.
- Add pineapple slices and raspberries if using and top with scooped sherbet just before serving. The ice cream will keep it chilled.
