Is This a Vegan Mocktail?

Yes, this limeade slush recipe is vegan-friendly. All of the ingredients are naturally vegan so you don’t have to worry about any animal products or byproducts being used in it. Just make sure that when you are buying things, make sure they're vegan friendly as some sodas may contain animal products.

Is This a Gluten-Free Mocktail?

Yes, this limeade punch recipe is gluten-free. All of the ingredients used in this mocktail are naturally gluten-free so you don’t have to worry about cross contamination. However, it’s always best to check the labels of any store bought items just in case to make sure they don’t contain any hidden gluten ingredients.

How Do I Serve This Drink?

This limeade punch is best served in a SUPER tall glass to make it the most "fancy" drink ever. Add some fresh fruit like a slice of lime or a strawberry for the ultimate "fun" look for the kids. You can also serve this drink in shot glasses as an after dinner treat, or even freeze it into popsicles for a fun twist!

Home Bar Equipment

Having a well-stocked home bar with the equipment to make cocktails or mocktails whenever you desire is important for the drink-making enthusiast. Build your bar for the perfect drinks with a few of my favorite items to make great beverages with great tools.

How to Store Leftover Mocktails

This mocktail is super easy to make, but you can make it ahead of time.

• Refrigerating Leftovers - You can store leftovers of the limeade punch in the fridge for up to three days. But the ice will melt. So, keep that in mind.
• Freezing Leftovers - Frozen limeade punch slushies can also be made with leftovers. Just pop the leftovers in a freezer bag and pull out later. You'll just need to let them thaw a bit before serving.
