In a large pitcher, combine the orange juice, pineapple juice, and cranberry juice. Stir well to mix.
Slowly pour in the lemon-lime soda to retain the carbonation. Gently stir to combine.
Add the lemon and lime slices into the pitcher for added flavor and a vibrant look.
Rinse the mint leaves and gently bruise them with your fingers or the back of a spoon to release their aroma. Add them to the pitcher.
Fill the pitcher with ice to chill the Summer Punch evenly.
Stir briefly to ensure everything is well incorporated.
Serve immediately in individual glasses, making sure each glass gets a slice of lemon or lime and a few mint leaves. Optionally garnish with additional mint sprigs.
