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
How to Make Candy Cane Punch
Simply fill a glass half full with your lemon-lime soda and pop a candy cane inside.
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.
Stir, drink and enjoy!

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!
