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!

RE: Shower Punch recipe
When slicing the oranges for the ice ring, should I cross cut, leaving the orange rind on? Or peel the orange?
Thank you!
My mother was the same way, always hosting parties and showers. She made punch and served it in a beautiful glass punch bowl with matching glass cups. Do they still have them these days? Such a good recipe. She also made a lime punch using lime sherbet. Do you remember that one? Thank you! Pinning it!
Yummy!!! I made it for a picnic last month and got rave reviews from everyone. Will definitely make again.Thanks for the post
My daughter is getting married in 2 weeks. I’ve been trying to find a non-alcoholic punch for the kids at the reception. This will work great. Think I’m going to do one with the ice ring and one with ice cream.
i would recommend rum, Johnnie. Hope you enjoy!
