Slowly pour in the sweetened condensed milk while stirring continuously. This will create a rich, velvety texture that makes this punch truly unique. For an even creamier version, whisk in the heavy cream as well. Your mixture should now have a beautiful light pink hue and a luscious consistency.

Step 4: Chill and Sparkle

Add ice cubes directly to the bowl to chill the punch. Then, gently pour in the sparkling water or club soda just before serving. This adds a refreshing fizz that elevates the drink, making it light and lively on the palate.

Note: Add the sparkling water at the last minute to preserve its effervescence!

Step 5: Garnish and Serve

Transfer the creamy strawberry apple punch into individual glasses filled with extra ice cubes. Garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh mint and a slice of strawberry or apple for an eye-catching and inviting presentation.

Serve immediately and watch as your guests swoon over this visually stunning and tantalizingly delicious drink!
