- Pour half of the cocktail mixture (approximately 1 cup each) over the ice in each glass.

Notes
- Leftover punch can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, but ice will dilute the drink and the soda may become flat.
- Do not add ice until serving to avoid a watered-down cocktail.
- This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled depending on the number of guests.
- Lemon-lime soda can be swapped with ginger ale or lemon-lime sparkling water.
- Coconut rum can be substituted with white, clear, or spiced rum if desired.
