Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Summer Punch
  1. Begin by preparing your Cherry and Strawberry Simple Syrups. In small saucepan over medium heat, combine equal parts sugar and water, stirring until dissolved. Add cherries for one syrup and strawberries for the other. Allow both mixtures to simmer for about 10 minutes. Afterward, remove from heat and let them cool completely.
  2. In a large punch bowl, pour in 3 cups of peach juice, 3 cups of pineapple orange juice, and 3 cups of lemonade. Stir the juices well with a long spoon.
  3. Once your juice base is well mixed, gently stir in 1 cup each of your Cherry and Strawberry Simple Syrups.
  4. Right before serving, pour in 4 cups of chilled lemon-lime soda to your juice mixture.
  5. To serve, fill glasses with ice and ladle your vibrant Summer Punch over the top. Garnish with lemon wheels, mint sprigs, or fresh fruit slices.
