  • Homemade fruit punch recipe with just 5 ingredients!
  • Great for parties or just for a hot summer day!
  • Non-alcoholic drink and 100% kid-friendly!
  • Make individual glasses of punch, or make this in a large punch bowl!
  • This easy punch recipe doesn't stain if spilled!

Ingredients Notes

  • Sugar - feel free to use a sugar substitute in place of the sugar if you prefer!
  • Citric Acid - yes, this is an important ingredient! You can find it in the canning section at stores.
  • Frozen Fruit - any blend of fruit works great! You can use fresh fruit instead. I like frozen fruit because it releases more fruit juice as it thaws and doubles as ice cubes.
  • Lemon Juice - A good substitute for fresh lemon juice is crystalized lemon by True Lemon. Trust me; I've never bought bottled lemon juice again since discovering this product!

Recipe FAQs and Expert Tips

Can I use fresh fruit instead?

You can use fresh fruit if you wish. ย I use frozen fruit because the pieces of fruit work as ice cubes without watering the punch down. ย As the fruit melts, it adds wonderful flavor to the punch.

Can I use a punch bowl?

Yes, you can make this in a punch bowl, pitchers, or fancy glasses.

How did you portion the fruit and punch?

I filled my jars full of the frozen fruit. ย It took 8 oz of frozen fruit to fill them full, but works just as well to use 4 oz of fruit per cup or glass. ย If you use 8 oz of fruit per serving, you will have enough water punch for one refill. ย 

Can this drink be made ahead of time?

Yes, I usually make these several hours ahead of time because I like the flavor to really blend, and the punch turns a beautiful red-pink color!

Ingredients
  

  • 32 ounces Frozen Mixed Fruit See Note

Water Punch

  • 2 quarts Cold Water
  • 1 ยฝ teaspoon Citric Acid
  • ยพ Cup Sugar
  • ยฝ Tbs. Lemon Juice

Instructions
 

  • Mix all the water, citric acid, sugar, and lemon juice together.
  • Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Divide the frozen fruit up into 4-8 pint-sized mason jars (see note at the end of the recipe for explanation)
  • Pour water punch over the frozen fruit.
  • You can either serve now or store these in the fridge for a couple hours to allow the flavors to blend.

Notes

  • You can use fresh fruit in this recipe. ย I prefer frozen fruit because it doubles as ice cubes without watering down the punch.
  • This makes 4-8 individual servings. ย The recipe makes 2 quarts of water punch to be poured over 32 ounces of frozen fruit. ย If you are wanting a lot of fruit per cup or glass, this makes 4 servings, which comes out to 8 oz fruit per glass with enough water left after the initial fill-up for one refill. ย If you divide the fruit up into 8 glasses, you will need the entire 2 quarts for one fill-up.

    I hav a lot of fruit I freeze. This is a great way to use the fruit and have a flavored drink for dinner.

    Hi, This recipe really is obsessive and it is appetizing. The sugary fresh pieces of fruits, the melting up of them in the water and the fruity syrup, all are the reason for my craving for this drink!

    It was 2 quarts over 2 days, not all in one night. By the way it's all gone again, can you make more?
