Step-by-Step Instructions for Summer Punch
  1. Prepare the simple syrups by combining equal parts of sugar and water in two small saucepans, simmering until dissolved. Add fresh cherries and strawberries to enhance flavor, simmer for 5 minutes, then strain and cool.
  2. In a large punch bowl, mix together the peach juice, pineapple orange juice, and lemonade. Stir gently for 30 seconds to blend flavors.
  3. Add the cherry and strawberry simple syrups to the punch bowl, stirring gently for another 30 seconds until well combined.
  4. Pour in the chilled lemon-lime soda just before serving, stirring gently to preserve carbonation.
  5. Serve over ice if desired, garnishing with lemon wheels, lime wheels, or fresh fruit slices.
