Can punch bowls be used to serve alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages?
Yes, punch bowls can be used for both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. They provide a fun communal way to present a variety of drinks, from traditional punches and cocktails to fruit-infused waters and mocktails. Their large capacity makes them suitable for gatherings of all kinds, and they often come with ladles for easy serving.
Whether it's a festive cocktail party or a family picnic, punch bowls offer a charming focal point for beverages that cater to diverse preferences. If a punch bowl has alcohol in it, remember to thoroughly rinse and wash it before serving non-alcoholic drinks.
What are some creative ideas for decorating punch bowls?
The most popular way to decorate a punch bowl is to place fresh fruit slices or edible flowers along the bowl's rim for added visual appeal and a subtle flavour twist. This is a great way to make your bowl stand out and use up any leftover garnishes or fruit used in the punch.
To add more colour, try using colourful ice cubes or frozen fruit shapes. Wrapping fairy lights around the base of the bowl creates a magical atmosphere, especially for evening events. For themed parties, match your decorations to the theme – like using beachy items for a beach-themed party or rustic touches for a country gathering.
What's the best way to serve drinks from a punch bowl?
The best way to serve drinks from a punch bowl is to use a ladle to serve the punch into individual cups or glasses. Ladles are deep enough to fit a drink-sized portion of punch in each scoop — plus, their large capacity makes it easier to scoop up any fruit or garnishes.
We have a huge range of ladles available online to complement your new punch bowl or beverage tub. Whatever your drink of choice is, browse our ladle collection online and find the right fit for your punch bowls with Tomkin.
