- 2 cups lemon-lime soda
- 0.5 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup water
- 0.5 cups fresh cranberries
- 1 whole orange, sliced orange slices

Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water over medium heat. Stir until the sugar has completely dissolved to make a simple syrup. Let it cool completely.

Pour the juice mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until slushy.
Before serving, remove the frozen juice mixture from the freezer and use a fork to scrape and break it into a slushy consistency.
In a large punch bowl, combine the slushy juice mixture with lemon-lime soda. Stir gently to mix.
