Tropical party tablescape idea
And if you’re making this punch for a crowd, here are a few ways to create a fun table to display your trendy drink.
Display the punch in a glass Pitcher
If you’re storing your punch, I suggest keeping it in a covered pitcher. But if you’re serving it at a gathering or party, a glass pitcher or clear plastic pitcher is the perfect solution so you can show off this beautifully colored drink.
Serve in pretty tropical cups
And you’ll need some fun cups. I found these cups on Etsy. I just fell in love with the gold pineapples.
Spray Paint pineapples as centerpieces
To add to that gold pineapple look, I spray painted some real pineapples with a gold metallic spray paint. This is an easy, inexpensive – and trendy – party centerpiece or decoration.
Use tropical paper goods
Paper goods are a must at any party. I found the napkins, garnish cups, straws, and flamingo stirrers and all at Target.
I was going to get the paper plates that coordinated with the napkins but then I saw these plastic plates on sale for .79 each at Target too. I bought them all – 3 different patterns that I know I’ll put to good use! Plus, the price wasn’t much more than the paper ones I had in my cart.
I stumbled on the table cloth from Target for $7 in the clearance section. It’s actually made to be used on an umbrella table – perfect for our outdoor gatherings!
Add more DIY Tropical touches to the party
I made the pom-pom garland. And the palm leaf placemats are from the $3 bin at – you guessed it – Target!
I painted and designed this beauty-full flamingo art print. Click here to purchase a digital print for only $2. It’s normally hanging in my daughter’s bedroom but we thought it was the perfect addition to the Tiki Punch table.
Add a few fresh cut greens and you’re all set to entertain. Do you have any fun drink recipes that you’d like to share? You may also enjoy these 26 Summer Drink and Mocktail Recipes. Tis’ the season!

Hi! This sounds really good! How much sparkling cider should I add if I want to include? Also, for the adult version, how much rum should I add?
Thanks!
Angela
Hi Angela,
Great question! That’s really a matter of personal preference and taste. I would recommend a shot of rum per serving, so try it with 8 shots of rum in the pitcher and see how you like the taste. OR if you’re serving the punch to a crowd of adults and kids, you could keep the rum separate and just add a shot of rum to each glass as you serve it. Likewise, I would use about the same amount of sparkling cider.
Hope that helps!
Best wishes,
Carrie
