This Witch’s Brew Punch is the kid’s and grown ups favorite Halloween punch recipe. It’s so easy to throw together and always a big hit.
Today’s punch recipe is one of those “been around forever recipes” that I have in my collection. It probably came from some church event or shower I attended in the 70’s or 80’s.
To serve the punch, I didn’t pull out my punch bowl (yes, I actually have two punch bowls) But instead used my cast iron cauldron I recently picked up at an antique mall. I was so excited to find it and knew it would be perfect for my witch’s brew. There are holes in the bottom of the pot and it was pretty rusty so I found a metal bowl to fit in the inside of the cauldron.

- Pineapple Juice
- Lime Sherbet

Tips for Making Witches Brew
Tips from leigh Anne
- Reduce the amount of sugar by using diet soda.
- If you want your punch a deeper green, add in a little green food color.
- Add plastic eyeballs for a spooky effect. I found them at the Dollar Store.
- For even more spookiness, add in a piece of dry ice to the punch to create a spooky smokey effect.
Be sure and follow me over on YouTube for weekly cooking demos.

Hi there – We’re making a punch for our Halloween party too – and after seeing this, I will need to hunt for some eyeballs as they look great! We’re in Cornwall, England, and we don’t have a great selection of Halloween accessories available but I’m sure I’ll be able to find some eyeball sweets or even draw some onto plain balls if it comes to that – after seeing this, I don’t think our bowl would look complete without them!
Thanks for this.

Good luck on your hunt. I think drawing some eyes on ping pong balls would work great too.

ok I know this is a stupid question how do you use dry ice? I know not in drink do you put it between the 2 bowls?would love to try this for our homeschool coop Halloween party thanks
Leigh Anne says
Veronica, I didn’t actually use dry ice for this. You can put it directly in the punch so that the punch bubbles but you don’t want to drink it. It will sink to the bottom of the punch. Also, don’t touch it with bare skin.
