Cheerwine Holiday Punch is back for 2026, and finding it takes a little more planning than looking for regular Cheerwine. The cherry, pineapple and ginger ale blend comes in 2-liter bottles and 12-packs of cans, but those formats don’t have the same store coverage.
If your local store doesn’t carry it, there are two other options: order from Cheerwine’s shop or make the brand’s three-ingredient punch at home.
Where to buy Cheerwine Holiday Punch
In its 2026 press release published on BevNET, Cheerwine lists these areas and formats:
- North Carolina, South Carolina and the Savannah, Georgia, area: 2-liter bottles and 12-pack cans are listed for participating major retailers.
- Food City: The announcement lists 12-pack cans at all 141 locations across Tennessee, Georgia, Kentucky, Virginia and Alabama.
- Virginia Food Lion stores: Select locations are listed for the 12-pack cans.
- Parts of Ohio and Pennsylvania: 12-pack cans are listed at Giant Eagle and Market District.
For North Carolina and South Carolina shoppers, Cheerwine’s punch page shows the participating retailer logos. The page specifies select areas, so a chain appearing on the list doesn’t mean every branch has it.
This is seasonal distribution, not a live inventory check. Before making a special trip, check with your store and ask about Holiday Punch specifically.
Can you order it online?
Yes. Cheerwine’s official shop lists a bundle of two 2-liter bottles for $9. That is the product price, not a delivered total. Check the current price, availability, taxes and delivery charges before ordering.
The shop says it ships within the United States and cannot ship to APO/FPO addresses.
How to make Cheerwine punch at home
You don’t need the seasonal bottle for Cheerwine’s homemade recipe. Start with regular Cheerwine, unsweetened pineapple juice and ginger ale, all chilled.
For a single serving, the brand gives this ratio:
- 2 parts Cheerwine
- 2 parts unsweetened pineapple juice
- 1 part ginger ale
Combine them and serve over ice. Use the same measure for each part, whether that’s a small measuring cup or an ounce measure.
For a party-size batch, the brand separately lists two 2-liter bottles of Cheerwine, two 46-ounce cans of unsweetened pineapple juice and one 2-liter bottle of ginger ale. Combine the chilled ingredients and serve right away.
Cheerwine also has a holiday recipe collection if you want to take the punch beyond a glass over ice.
