    This heavenly and super easy punch cocktail recipe reminiscent of a Creamsicle is actually a German punch called Schlammbowle. It combines bite-sized fruit pieces and juices with vodka, sparkling wine, and vanilla ice cream. Top everything off with some sprinkles for a bit of extra fun.

    What is Schlammbowle?

    Schlammbowle is an old-school German punch cocktail recipe often served during the summer at birthday parties and get-togethers with friends or family. The main ingredients are fruit pieces (I used pineapple and peaches), fruit juices (typical peach, mango, and orange), vodka, sparkling wine, and vanilla ice cream. Traditionally it's prepared in a large punch bowl (my recipe serves around 30, but let's be realistic and call that 10). The fruit can be cut in advance and combined with the vodka and juices for minimal work left for when it's game time, which is to add a bottle of sparkling wine and a half-gallon or 2-liters container of vanilla ice cream.

    When To Drink Creamsicle Punch?

    Making and drinking punch is great for any kind of parties or get-togethers, especially during summer. In fall, winter and spring, this could still make a great drinkable dessert. Feel free to play with the flavors for the changing seasons, maybe using cider, apples, pears and cinnamon sticks for the cooler months, strawberries and lemonade for the spring. The creative opportunities are endless. Serve with some Currywurst, creamy potato salad and homemade Brezeln for the ultimate summer feast!

    Tools Needed For This Cocktail Recipe

    Here are the tools you'll likely want to use when making a whole bowl-full of this German punch.

    • Punch Bowl. Punch bowls often have feet or sit on some kind of pedestal. I like using this rounded, versatile serving bowl for serving my punch. I also frequently use it for salads.
    • Punch Ladle. This ladle is so pretty! I just got it and LOVE it. You'll love bringing it out for parties. Make sure to hand-wash it.
    • Cocktail Glasses. I actually use some footed, hammered glasses that are so pretty, but even martini or coupe glasses would work well, or even regular drinking glasses. I linked these because I think they are so pretty and more affordable if served for just a couple of guests.
    • Ice Cream Scoop. To scoop that ice cream into the bowl or directly into the glasses for those late guests. This easy-release scoop makes it so easy!

        Hi Deon, I used a theme called "Extra" by Elegant Themes and use the Divi builder to build my site. My mom is a web designer, so I had some help... I hope this helps and thank you very much! 🙂 Good luck with you blog! What is it called?

    Hallo, I'm Sophie!

    I am so happy that you are here at my German food and recipe blog named dirndl kitchen! Let's cook and bake authentic German recipes to help us feel closer to Germany!

    I moved from Germany to the United States in 2009 and soon started to terribly miss the German food (okay, my family, too)! I still miss a nice weekend brunch with crusty Brötchen (rolls) and Teilchen (pastries), Döner Kebab and German cake and coffee time at 15 o'clock! So I decided to educate my fellow Germany-missing friends by writing about German food and traditions. I do so in a fun way with easy-to-follow recipes! I hope you stay a while and bookmark some recipes, so we can cook and bake together.

    Mit viel Liebe (with much love)
