Main Ingredients
- 1 quart peppermint ice cream
- 1 quart eggnog
- 4 cans ginger ale, chilled (12 fl. oz. each)
- 1 cup rum
Garnish
- 16 – 24 small peppermint candy canes (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare Ice Cream Garnish: Line a small baking sheet or baking dish with plastic wrap. Scoop 2-3 round scoopfuls of the peppermint ice cream onto the plastic wrap. Place the baking sheet with the scoops in the freezer to set and use later as garnish.
- Soften Ice Cream: In a large bowl, stir the remaining peppermint ice cream until it is softened and easy to mix, ensuring a smooth punch texture.
- Mix Eggnog and Rum: Gradually stir in the quart of eggnog and 1 cup of rum into the softened ice cream mixture until well combined.
- Add Ginger Ale: Transfer the combined mixture to a punch bowl and gently stir in the chilled ginger ale, creating a fizzy, creamy punch.
- Garnish Punch Bowl: Hang the peppermint candy canes around the edge of the punch bowl for a festive decoration.
- Serve with Ice Cream Scoops: Float the reserved peppermint ice cream scoops over the top of the punch for a decorative and flavorful touch, then serve immediately.
Notes
- For a non-alcoholic version, omit the rum and add an extra can of ginger ale.
- Use fresh peppermint candy canes for best flavor and presentation.
- Ensure the ice cream scoops are well-frozen before serving to keep the punch cool and attractive.
- This punch is best served immediately to retain the fizz of the ginger ale.
- Adjust rum quantity to taste depending on preferred strength.
