Different citrus: If you’re looking to experiment with flavors, try substituting the orange juice concentrate with lemon or lime juice concentrate for a more tart punch.

FAQs:
Can I use fresh orange juice instead of frozen concentrate? Yes! You can replace frozen orange juice concentrate with freshly squeezed orange juice. However, using concentrate gives a more concentrated flavor, so adjust the amount of water to your taste.
Can I make this punch in advance? Yes, you can prepare the orange juice and ice cream base ahead of time. However, for the best taste and fizz, it’s recommended to add the soda right before serving.
Is it possible to make a dairy-free version? Yes! For a dairy-free version, substitute the vanilla ice cream with a non-dairy alternative, such as coconut or almond milk ice cream.
Can I use sparkling water instead of soda? Absolutely! If you prefer less sweetness and a more subtle fizz, sparkling water or club soda works perfectly in this recipe.
