    THE BEST JUNGLE JUICE

    Are you looking for a tasty mixed drink that will serve a bunch of people? Well, look no further, this jungle juice recipe has you covered.

    And let me tell ya, it comes in clutch when you're hosting. 

    Having to buy a bunch of different alcohol for guests can get super expensive. But this jungle juice is an easy and affordable way to provide a tasty alcoholic drink to your guests that everyone will enjoy!

    If you've never heard of this vodka punch drink combo before, it contains a few different fruit juices, some fresh fruit, and vodka. And I sometimes like to add in soda water or lemon soda to give the drink a little fizz. 

    An empty glass gallon dispenser. A hand is pouring a cup of orange juice into it. In front of the dispenser is a small white bowl with orange slices and next to dispenser is a small glass bowl of sliced strawberries, behind the strawberries as a bottle of vodka.

    The best part, you can make enough jungle juice to serve all of your guests for under $20, and it takes just seconds to create!

    INGREDIENTS

    Now, there are a couple of different ways to make jungle juice, but I've tried quite a few and have found this combination to be the best one. 

    Here is what you'll need:

    • 2 cups Orange Juice
    • 2 cups Cranberry Juice
    • 1 cup Fruit Punch
    • 2 Oranges, sliced
    • 2 cups Strawberries, clean and cut in halves
    • 2-3 cups Vodka
    • Soda water or lemon soda (optional)
    Glass gallon dispenser with some juice in it. I hand is pouring a cup of cranberry juice into it. Behind the jungle juice is a bottle of vodka in front of that a small glass bowl sliced strawberries and in front of that white bowl of orange slices.

    As I mentioned above, adding soda water and lemon soda is optional - they will just give your drink a little carbonation.

    Oh, and you'll notice that I only use vodka in this recipe, so the alcohol doesn't overpower the fruit juices. However, some people like to add rum to it, so feel free to do that if you want!

    Also, just so you know, I use a lot of the same ingredients to make my famous sex on the beach recipe. So if you've got some leftover vodka give that a shot next!

    A glass gallon dispenser filled with juices. A hand is pouring vodka from a bottle into the juice. In front of the gallon dispenser is a small white bowl of sliced oranges in behind that small glass bowl of sliced strawberries.

    HOW TO MAKE JUNGLE JUICE

    Making jungle juice couldn't be any easier!

    All you have to do is pour the orange juice, cranberry juice, fruit punch, and vodka into either a gallon dispenser or punch bowl. 

    A glass gallon dispenser filled with jungle juice. In front of it is a small white bowl with orange slices and a hand is holding an orange slice, hovering over the jungle juice.

    Then add in the orange slices and strawberries, and give everything a good mix. 

    For serving, fill individual glasses with ice, garnish with a few orange slices and strawberries, and top with a splash of soda water or lemon soda to blend with the fruit juices - if you are using it. 

    By the way, this recipe makes about 12 servings of jungle juice, so if you want more, just double, triple, or quadruple the recipe!

    A glass jar filled with ice, an orange slice, and sliced strawberries. A little is pouring jungle juice into it and behind that glass is a filled glass of jungle juice. Behind the two glasses is half of a glass gallon jar filled with jungle juice. The glasses on the counter for a few sliced strawberries.

    Faqs about this jungle juice recipe

    Do I have to make jungle juice hours in advance?

    What's great about this vodka punch mixture is you can make it seconds before people arrive, or you can make it hours before! I like to make it hours before, so all of the flavors have time to develop. And then it can stay chilling in the fridge so it's extra refreshing.

    Do I have to add alcohol?

    Of course not! If you want a fun fruity drink that is adult and kid-friendly, make this recipe without the alcohol! It really can just become the ultimate fruit mixed drink with literally anything you want.

    What else can I add to this jungle juice recipe?

    Another fun aspect of jungle juice is adding pretty much anything you want to it and taking out anything you don't want. I mean, it is called jungle juice, so it's meant to have as many crazy things in it as you want!

    Here are some ideas of what you can use:

    • Lemonade
    • Pink Lemonade
    • Orange Soda
    • Hawaiian Punch
    • Gatorade 
    • Pineapple Juice
    • Any Liquor (rum, white rum, gin, tequila, flavored vodka)
    Two glass cups filled with jungle juice, strawberry slices, and orange slices, behind the glasses is half of a glass gallon jar filled with jungle juice. On the white counter everything is on there's a few slices of strawberries.
