Once you've gathered your ingredients, we will follow this method:

Fill a large punch bowl about ? full of ice.
Pour in the Hawaiian punch, soda, and pineapple juice.
Add the coconut and gummy worms and eyeball ice cubes if using and stir.
Rim glasses with black icing if desired before ladling in the punch for serving.

Tips For Perfect Halloween Punch

It is best to mix this punch immediately before serving - mixing gummy ice, worms, and shredded coconut right before serving, as they will start to melt and dissolve after adding.

Be sure to add plenty of ice cubes to your punch before adding in your ingredients, so you don't have to mix much - give a light stir after adding all of the juice - and then add in the coconut and candy!

When serving, be sure everyone gets a worm and an ice eye surprise!

There are a couple of modifications you can make to make this allergy friendly - including skipping the coconut and swapping pineapple for orange juice if you run into coconut or pineapple allergies.

You can add additional creepy crawly gummy candies - kids love the fun surprise! We recommend regular gummies, instead of sour candies that have a powder coating on the outside, as the sour coating can change the flavor of the fruit punch.

Halloween Punch FAQs

How long does fruit punch last?

While you can pre-mix the pineapple juice and fruit punch, you will immediately start to lose carbonation from the lemon lime soda, and the coconut will start to dissolve - so we reccomend making this punch immediately before serving.
To save time, you can pre-rim glasses with icing, make the gummy ice cubes, and prep decorations in advance and quickly mix the punch at the last minute before serving!

Can I add alcohol to Halloween Punch?

Vodka and rum make great mix-ins - you can add individually to drinks to make a drink that is party friendly for kids and adults, or make a big batch that is just for adults if you want to get in on the spooky fun, too!

What can I substitute for pineapple juice in Halloween punch?

If you would like to swap out the pineapple juice in this recipe, you can use orange juice instead.
