Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups lemon-lime soda
  • 2 cups blue sports drink like Gatorade or Powerade
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup ice
  • Rock candy sticks for “lightning rods”

  • Lemon slices

Method
 

  1. Fill a large pitcher or punch bowl with ice.
  2. Pour in the blue sports drink and pineapple juice.

  4. Slowly pour in the lemon-lime soda right before serving to keep the fizz lively.

Notes

Serve the punch in clear cups and sprinkle a tiny bit of Pop Rocks right before drinking so it crackles like electrical sparks. Perfect for a drink that feels like it came from the Nova Robotics lab.
