For those who prefer a punch without the fizz, you can easily create a non-carbonated version of Spooky Halloween Eyeball Punch. Simply replace the carbonated beverages with fruit juices or flavored waters. A mix of cranberry juice, apple juice, and a splash of lemon or lime could provide a refreshing alternative that maintains the punch's fruity essence without the bubbles. Using fruit juices not only keeps the flavor profile lively but also caters to guests who might be sensitive to carbonation or simply prefer a smoother drink.

Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh blueberries (for creating eyeballs)

1 cup canned lychee fruit (or freshly peeled and pitted)

1 cup pomegranate juice

3 cups lemon-lime soda or sparkling water

1 cup fresh orange juice

1/2 cup fresh lime juice

1 cup pineapple juice

Ice cubes or spooky ice molds (optional for chilling)

Gummy eyeball candies for garnish (optional)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Eyeballs: Start by taking the lychee fruit and carefully stuffing a blueberry into each one to create the eerie ‘eyeball’ appearance. Set these spooky eyeballs aside until you're ready to add them to the punch. If you’re using gummy eyeball candies, set those aside to sprinkle in later.

    Make the Punch Base: In a large punch bowl, pour in the pomegranate juice, orange juice, and fresh lime juice. Use a ladle or whisk to stir the mixture thoroughly until all the juices are well blended.

      Add the Fizz: Gradually pour in the lemon-lime soda or sparkling water. To maintain the punch's effervescence, stir gently to combine, being careful not to overmix and lose carbonation.

        Incorporate the Pineapple Juice: Next, pour in the pineapple juice, stirring the mixture again to ensure all the juices meld beautifully, bringing a vibrant color and refreshing fruity flavor to your punch.

          Add the Eyeballs and Chill: Drop your prepared lychee-blueberry eyeballs into the punch gently. If you're using spooky ice cubes or molds, add them as well. Place the punch in the refrigerator and let it chill for about 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to harmonize.

            Serve: When you're ready to serve, garnish the punch with fresh mint leaves. For an extra creepy vibe, scatter gummy eyeball candies over the top. Serve the punch in clear glasses to highlight the eerie ‘eyeballs’ bobbing throughout.

              Enjoy the Spookiness: Invite your guests to help themselves and revel in the delicious, festive, and spooky flavors this punch offers!
