Ocean Water Punch only has a couple of ingredients but is perfect for all your summer parties, Memorial Day and 4th of July gatherings!

OCEAN WATER PUNCH (KID-FRIENDLY!)

This recipe for Ocean Water Punch is probably the easiest you’ll ever make. It only has two ingredients! Here’s the thing though: adults and kids alike love it. It’s one of those drinks that makes you feel like a kid again. Sometimes we just gotta break outta that grown up mode and let our inner kid come out. This punch will do just that!Ocean Water Punch in a glass, close up photo

FOR ADULTS ONLY – DIRTY OCEAN WATER

Now, if you are making this for adults-only, you could certainly add a splash of rum to the mix. We call that punch, ‘Dirty Ocean Water’. 😉 Do you know the bonus of this recipe? You can switch it out with any flavor of Hawaiian Punch you want. They are all really good. Fruit Juicy Red, Green Berry Rush and Orange Rush flavors are all favorites of ours. It also allows you to change up the color depending on the theme of your gathering!Easy Ocen Water Punch recipe from The Country Cook

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
Polar Blast Hawaiian Punch
lemon-line soda (7-Up or Sprite)
Swedish fish
Polar Blast Hawaiian Punch, Lemon Lime soda and Swedish Fish

HOW TO MAKE OCEAN WATER PUNCH:

If you have time, place the Hawaiian Punch and lemon-lime soda in the refrigerator overnight to cool. For this recipe, the ratio of Hawaiian Punch to lemon-lime soda is half and half. The exact proportions depend on the the size of your container or punch bowl. Fill up your container halfway with Hawaiian Punch.

    My kids will love this, and probably refer this as Lake Water, and they love Swedish fish!

      Many years ago I made a similar drink using a blue Kool Aid and my nephew called it 2000 Flushes. A toilet bowl cleaner

      Swedish Fish are the same consistency of gummy bears only shaped like fish.

    I made this for my daughter’s ‘End the Year Party’ for her 2nd grade class!! It was the star of the show!! All of the kids loved it, they devoured an entire bottle of Hawaiian punch and 2 – 2 liters of Sprite, in only an hour!! The Sweedish Fish made a great addition as I teased the kids and told them they were eating sushi!! This is definitely a super easy party punch that I will use again and again!! Thank you!!

    Made this last year for picnic. We put Swedish fish and blue gummy sharks on skewers for the kids to add to their drinks. Huge hit. So simple.

    I am going to be making this for a luau party we are hosting this weekend. For the adult version, what kinda of rum do I use (I know absolutely nothing about rum) and how much would you consider a splash? I have a big 2 gallon pitcher I will be using. So I was thinking 1 gallon juice, 2 2-litres of Sprite and rum. Thanks so much! Hope to hear from you in time.

      Hey Bethany – I just do it to taste to be honest. Some like a little (like me) and some like a lot. So I would start with 1/4 cup and go up from there. 🙂
