Make a Splash With These Baby Shower Punch With Ducks.

made this years ago for a friend's baby shower. Now, it's a tradition to make it for each new Mom in my life. One of the best things about baby showers is the food and the drinks! Let's be honest; endless onesies and diapers can get kind of boring, and the games are just silly! A fantastic way to showcase your party theme and unique personal style is at the food table. We like simple side dishes like my orange fluff and easy sandwiches like my cheeseburger sliders.

Our favorite drink to serve is this blue baby shower punch. The ducks float on top, showcasing a cute bubble bath scene. It is always a huge hit! It's perfect for Moms and kids as it doesn't contain any alcohol. Besides baby shower it is also great for birthday parties.


Ingredient Notes and Shopping Tips

Blue raspberry lemonade Kool aid, rainbow sherbet, white grape juice, a 2 liter of ginger ale, white sugar, and a rubber duck.
  • Blue Raspberry Kool-Aid: Avoid using bottled drinks like Hawaiian punch. In recent years, they've changed to include artificial sweeteners, which have a bitter aftertaste.
    • Kool-Aid packets can usually be found near the bottled water.
  • Ginger Ale: Use any lemon-lime soda you like.
  • White Grape Juice: Any clear juice you enjoy drinking, such as White Cranberry, will also work.
  • Sherbet: Since I originally published this post, pineapple sherbet has gotten harder to find. Orange, lemon, or even rainbow can be used instead.
  • Ducks: Make sure you use ducks meant for the bathtub so that they float.

Duck Tip

I like to give them a rinse in hot , soapy dishwater before placing them in the punch.

How Can I Make It Pink?

If you want to make it pink use a pink Kool Aid flavor like pink lemonade and raspberry sherbet like I did here.

Consider using pink ducks as well.

This drink is designed to look like bath water. It doesn't symbolize the baby's gender.

How Can I Keep It Cold Without Diluting It?

Consider an ice ring that melts more slowly than smaller cubes. You can make one in a mold or bundt pan.

You could also make ice cubes using punch ingredients like juice or Hawaiian punch.

️Krystle's Tips️

  1. Chill Ingredients: For an ice-cold punch, chill all ingredients for around 12-24 hours.
  2. Avoid Excessive Stirring: This can cause the carbonation to go flat.
  3. Sherbet: Allow the sherbet so sit out for 5-10 minutes so it is easier to scoop.

Pour the Soda Pop Slowly:

This ensures it won't overflow. This was learned from experience and I want to save you the hassle and the sticky mess!
