PARTY PUNCH
(This post contains affiliate links.)
How pretty is this Party Punch?! I love the punch that is normally served at a baby shower or special event… you know that kind… it has ice cream sherbert & soda in it?! And you feel like you’ve been hit with a semi after about 2 cups of it because it’s so sugary?! Yeah, that one… HERE IS MY Trim Healthy Mama Alternative!
Just in time for my son & two of my daughter’s birthday parties!! Yes! And no out of control kids or jumping off the wall adults (well maybe just adults). HAHA!
Very little ingredients really! I did use frozen strawberries for the base but you could dress it up with fresh strawberries for a garnish or you could even slice a few to float around in the punch bowl. I added slices of fresh lemons to the top for a garnish. That’s always an option.
Place the frozen strawberries in a blender, add the squeezed lemon and lime juice along with the THM Gentle Sweet. Then add the cream. Blend again until completely blended together. Pour the frozen strawberry blend into a punch bowl. Add the carbonated water. Stir.
If you replace the heavy whipping cream with canned coconut cream you can make this completely dairy free and it does not affect the taste at all, in fact I love the coconut version just as much as the heavy whip version!
There you have it!! A perfect party punch to have for parties, events, etc. so you can stay on your Trim Healthy Mama plan! It is an S punch because of the cream! It’s low carb and even keto!

Oh man! So freaking good! It was just me and the grandbaby and I’m lookin at that punch recipe thinking how much I miss sherbet and sprite in party punch and yes I did, I DID MAKE IT! No one to share it with! (laughing!) But I made it anyway! Thank you for sharing! I had La Croix Lime flavored sparkling water so I used that! This is the best sugar free punch I ever had! I almost broke out my little punch cups but I remembered I don’t have any! (I gave them away!) Tonight at dinner I broke out the punch and we had it with our steak and baked potato! It was still really good all thawed out and cold as could be! Hehehe…..
Sarah says
Woohoo awesomeness!!!
Amy says
This looks awesome! Did you use gentle sweet or super sweet?
Sarah says
Ah, that was before they changed the name… I used Super Sweet but you can use the Gentle Sweet. You will just need to add more of it by at least doubling it, maybe more!
Lisa E Fetty says
Won’t the citrus cause the whipping cream to curdle?
Sarah says
I’ve never had it curdle.
Wendy Lewis says
Wondering if this could work with cranberries? I’m having a hard time finding a Thanksgiving THM punch recipe!
Sarah says
Oh my goodness yum! Let me know if you try it!!
Darlene Marion says
I would like to make this punch to bring to a Christmas dinner. Could I make it ahead of time, and just add the sparkling carbonated water to it later when I arrive there? As I don’t want to have to use their blender when I arrive (if I don’t need to). Would it work to keep the mix partially frozen, or what are your recommendations? Thank you.
Sarah says
Yes, you can do that… just make the strawberry part ahead, freeze, take out before you leave & then pour the carbonated water over it.
Darlene Marion says
Thank you so much for your reply, and instructions to make this delightful strawberry punch ahead of time. I will give it a try today. I’m sure everyone will love it! Merry Christmas!
