Ingredients

Instructions

  • Drain the longan and reserve the juice. Set both aside.
    2 - 20 ounce cans of longan fruit in syrup
  • Pour the blackberries into the bottom of a large pitcher. Break up the blackberries using a long wooden spoon.
    6 ounces fresh blackberries
  • Add the blackberry preserves/jam and mix into the berries.
    ½ cup blackberry preserves or jam
  • Pour in the cherry juice, white grape juice, cranberry cocktail juice, and reserved longan juice, mix well.
    1 cup cherry juice, 1 cup white grape juice, 1 cup cranberry juice cocktail, 1 cup longan juice
  • Pour in the ginger ale and give a light stir.
    8 cups ginger ale
  • To make the eyeballs, place one frozen blueberry inside of one longan.
    12 ounce bag of frozen blueberries
  • The punch can be served with the eyeballs in the punch pitcher, in individual glasses, or served on the side.

Notes

  • Chill, Chill, Chill: Make sure to use chilled juices and ginger ale for a refreshingly cold punch.
  • Size Matters: When making ‘eyeballs,’ make sure to match the size of the blueberries with the longan fruit. They should fit snugly.
  • Berry Beware: Frozen berries can stain your hands. Use gloves if you want to avoid smurf fingers! Then again, maybe that’s perfect for the spooky season!
  • More Color: For a punch with a more vibrant hue, feel free to add a drop or two of food coloring.
  • Adults Only: Want to make an adult version? Replace half of the ginger ale with champagne or prosecco for a spirited twist.
  • Ice It Right: If you’re using ice cubes, opt for fun shapes like skulls or pumpkins to keep the Halloween spirit going.
