How to Make Sherbet Punch

The punch can be made with different sherbet flavors.

Sherbet lends itself well to punch because it's available in a variety of fruit flavors and dissolves easier than ice cream due to its lower milk content. The punch is one of the last things you should prepare for a party, because you want it to serve it fresh. To keep it cold without watering down the flavor, nestle the punch bowl in a tray filled with ice.
