You had to know that this was coming, right? No Harry Potter party would be complete without Polyjuice Potion! I’m sorry to say that you will not turn into a different person by drinking my version, unless of course you drink too much. But that would just be silly. You know what they always say…..everything in moderation!
I do have a bit of a confession to make, I did not know that lime sherbet contains milk! Silly me…so I did not actually drink this Polyjuice Potion. I suppose I was thinking sorbet, and didn’t realize that they are different things? Who knows.
It also looked much more ominous when I first made it…..
Versus the next day when I poured it back into the punch bowl to take the official photos, lol. I added more soda hoping to get that frothy, bubbly look again, but no such luck. 🙁
How to make a Polyjuice Potion Cocktail:
So the moral of this story is this. Add your lime sherbet to a large punch bowl. Pour in the vodka and lemon-lime soda…and serve immediately!
When the party is over, pour the remaining punch down the drain…..it will not keep in the refrigerator! 😉
If lime isn’t your thing, I also made Butter Beer Cocktails, and my favorite punch, Witches Brew Cocktail.
I bet you could even convince your friends that this Pumpkintini, is actually Pumpkin Juice!
Enjoy!!

October 12, 2014 at 8:45 amI love this so much. Even though I am sorry to admit that I don’t like lime sherbet I have to say I would try it. If only to see if it would change me into you. haha
Pinned!

October 16, 2014 at 9:06 pmWell this just sounds delicious! Too bad it can’t hold onto that ominous look…..but I’m sure it doesn’t last long anyway!

October 17, 2014 at 11:12 amThe ominous look lasts long enough for the party, so I guess that’s a good thing! 🙂

October 31, 2014 at 1:23 amOughto, that sounds like a fun story, lol. 🙂 Vodka puts me to sleep, rum makes me silly. You would think that it wouldn’t make a difference which type of alcohol, but it does!!

September 25, 2015 at 9:20 pmMy daughter and her friends love Harry Potter…last Halloween they watched Harry Potter movies all night. Next time I just may make this for them, without the alcohol of course!
