# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It looks absolutely stunning in a punch bowl with the strawberries and lemon slices floating around like little jewels.
  • The whole thing comes together in about ten minutes, which means you can actually enjoy your guests instead of stress-cooking.
  • It tastes refreshing and bright without being cloyingly sweet, and everyone from kids to adults will want a glass.
02 -
  • Don't add the sparkling element until the last possible moment—I learned this the hard way when I made this punch two hours early and it went completely flat.
  • If you're worried about dilution, freeze some of the juice mixture in ice cube trays the day before so the punch stays flavorful as it chills.
03 -
  • A punch bowl is worth the space it takes up in your cabinet—it transforms any drink into something that feels intentional and celebratory.
  • If fresh strawberries are out of season or pricey, frozen strawberries thawed and sliced work beautifully and honestly might even be sweeter.
