Ingredients

Scale

1 liter orange soda, chilled
1 cup orange juice
1 pint vanilla ice cream
1/2 cup heavy cream
Whipped cream for topping (optional)
Marshmallow ghosts or ghost-shaped candies for garnish (optional)

Instructions

In a large pitcher or punch bowl, combine orange soda and orange juice.
Slowly add heavy cream and stir gently to blend.
Scoop vanilla ice cream into the mixture to create a creamy, foamy texture.
Stir lightly and let the ice cream melt slightly for a more blended punch, or leave it as floating “ghosts” for effect.
Pour into individual cups and top with whipped cream if desired.
Garnish with marshmallow ghosts or ghost-shaped candies for a spooky finish.

Notes

Chill all liquids before mixing to keep the punch cold longer.
Serve immediately after adding ice cream for best texture and appearance.
Use gloves when handling dry ice and keep it out of reach of children.
Customize color with natural food coloring or by swapping juices and sodas.
Add garnishes just before serving to prevent sogginess or dissolving.
Double or triple the recipe for large parties—this punch disappears fast!
