Hogwarts Punch

Pretty much anyone who has ever seen or read Harry Potter has dreamed of being a first year student, marveling at the mounds of food in the Great Hall at Hogwarts. And while we can't guarantee you'll finally be admited to the train departing at platform 9 and 3/4, we can guarantee you'll enjoy this sweet and tangy sip enough to feel better about the fact that you were born a muggle.

Bring your Harry Potter party to life with this fun punch drink that will please both mocktail and cocktail drinkers alike. The recipe shows you how to make it for eight people as a punch, but you can also blend it to make a swamp smoothie. 

Ingredients:

1 quart of Lime Sherbet

32 ounces of lemon lime soda

8 ounces of Vodka (optional)

8 wiggly gummy worms (for garnish)

Directions:

Add the lemon lime soda to a punch bowl (and Vodka if you are making a cocktail), then scoop the lime sherbet into the bowl to create several floating scoops of sherbet. 

Stir the mixture to allow the sherbet and the 7up to fizz and blend together.  

Fill each punch glass with Hogwarts Punch and garnish with a wiggly worm before serving.
