Fruity Vodka Party Punch is an easy cocktail made with lemonade, fruit punch, rum, and vodka. It’s bright and fruity, a little tropical, and makes a big batch, which is exactly what I want from a party drink! I get so many people asking for this recipe every time I serve it!

I’ve always had a soft spot for fruit punch. As a kid, I’m pretty sure I considered it one of my daily servings of fruit, which was probably not what my mom had in mind. These days I still love that sweet, nostalgic fruit-punch flavor, but I prefer mine with a little vodka and rum added to the mix.

The best party recipes are the ones you don’t have to spend the whole party making them, and this definitely qualifies. Mix up one pitcher or punch bowl, add ice or frozen fruit, and it’s ready for a crowd at holidays, summer parties, game days, or just about any gathering where you want an easy fruit cocktail! Vodka Fruit Punch mixed with rum and lemonade…yes please and thank you very much!

Vodka Fruit Punch Ingredients

  • This recipe is an easy party in your glass, made with vodka and rum. I used fruit punch and lemonade as the juice and club soda to give it fizz.
  • Swap Sprite or Diet 7Up if you want, or even Ginger Ale. I love doing it with club soda because then there is no added sweetness. (La Croix is a good substitute, like I did in my Strawberry Lime Punch recipe.) As I get older I don’t like super sweet drinks as much, so I tend to add sparkling water instead of sugary or diet soda.
  • Instead of ice you can use frozen fruit to keep the drink cold.

Dorothy’s Party Punch Tips

  • Now, as I always say in cocktail recipes, taste is subjective, and so is strength. I’ve had people tell me that my Cake By The Ocean Cocktail was both too weak and strong enough to get them drunk after one serving. If you taste this and it’s too strong, add more club soda. If it’s not strong enough, add more vodka or rum. That’s what I love about drink recipes; you really can easily change them up to suit your preferences.
  • If this drink looks familiar, it could be because it’s kind of a cross between Jungle Juice punch (which has orange juice instead of lemonade) and my Maui Island Breeze Cocktail.
  • To make this ahead for a party: Mix juices and alcohol in a pitcher or punch bowl and chill. Add soda just before serving.

Variations

I have Orange Vodka Party Punch, Vodka Limeade Punch, Cranberry Champagne Punch with vodka, Strawberry Lime Party Punch, Seabreeze Cocktail Punch, Salty Dog Punch with grapefruit, and Pineapple Party Punch with champagne!

This would also be good with tequila, like my Raspberry Lemonade Margaritas, but ever since a mishap at a Friendsgiving Party a few years back I try to avoid tequila at all costs, lol.

Love party punch recipes? Try a Rose Sangria, a Sparkling Party Punch that’s non-alcoholic, or a Stormy Donkey Party Punch.

  2. looking for some party punches and found this on your front page, looks wonderful, love the club soda that’s not usually in this kind of punch (at least not to me!) so a nice “upgrade” to the original and great tip too about using frozen fruit to keep it cold, it also won’t dilute the flavor like ice will, thank you!
