My Shower Punch is such an easy punch recipe for any party, shower or special event! It’s a delicious fruit punch that’s always been one of my favorite punch recipes!
This punch recipe has to be one of my favorite drinks that I remember Mama and my Grandmother making for showers they hosted. It’s perfect for And now I make it a lot for bridal and baby showers, too. It just works so well because it’s easy to make, refreshing, and absolutely beautiful as it glistens in the punch bowl! Did I mention it’s delicious?!
Shower Punch Recipe
Because we have a large family, it seemed like there was a shower just about every weekend when I was growing up. So you better believe I was the first to sign up to sample a cup or two as this punch recipe was being made.
Now that I host showers and parties myself, I turn to this punch recipe often too. It is super easy to make and everyone loves it! It doesn’t hurt that this punch looks beautiful. It’s stunning served in a large punch bowl with the floating ice ring with cherries and orange slices.
Perfect for Parties, Showers, and Celebrations
This punch recipe is also perfect to serve at birthday parties, patriotic celebrations (just look at that gorgeous red), and other spring and summer parties.
You can serve this in a pretty punch bowl at Easter with appetizers and desserts after the Easter egg hunt or alongside the cake at a special birthday party.
It’s a refreshing drink for summer parties and fun July 4th celebrations and can be modified by not making the ice ring so that it can be poured from a pitcher. I like to use a glass pitcher if not serving in a punch bowl because it so vibrant and pretty!
It makes it great to serve any time so both children and adults can enjoy it.
It’s so delicious and easy that I think you will find that you want to make it again and again!
Here’s how you make my family’s favorite Punch Recipe. I think you’ll love it!

This is the exact punch I remember from showers and birthday parties as a kid, Robyn. Love it! And you’re grandma is exactly right (and so are you). Amanda is a very good lady.
Yum! I have this bizarre love of punch… I just can’t get enough of it. I know I’d love this version, too. Is it OK to make punch just because? To celebrate Monday, perhaps?
Absolutely! Why not make some this week to celebrate spring? It’s worth a celebration!!!

I’ve never had punch with a proper ice ring in it before, it really dresses it up for a special occasion.
