There are so many recipe variations out there when it comes to punch. Really, there's no strict rules - which is part of why punch is so great (besides the fact that it's delicious, of course). ;)  Today's Pop Liz Clink recipe, Sparkling Orange Raspberry Punch, is one of those super simple crowd pleasers that takes less than five minutes to make, but will keep folks coming back for more!

This sparkling punch recipe is great for a New Year's Eve punch, but it's also a great recipe for wedding showers, baby showers (switch to a lime sorbet for a baby boy), and bachelorette parties. Really, anytime you need a simple drink that will serve lots of people, punch is your best bet.
