Erdinger’s Raspberry Beer Punch Recipe – A German Weissbierbowle Recipe

I find that here in California, when I say “Beer Punch Recipe“, people look at me funny. In a world of craft and specialty beers, why would you mix in fruits and champagne? You know why? Because the flavor is out of this world delicious, and it’s quite refreshing on a warm day. A German Bowle, or German Punch Recipe, is a common site at many Summertime gatherings. It’s easy to make, and looks pretty too. Plus the non-beer drinkers will enjoy it too. (It’s funny to me how many people who “dislike beer” love a Bier Bowle). So why not make a Bowle for your next summertime get together?

Raspberry Beer Punch Recipe

This recipe from Erdinger Fanclub for “Kühle Bowle für heiße Sommernächte” (Cool Punch for Summer Nights) was sent to me by Jennifer O’Bayley… who wanted me to share it with all of you. Try it. It’s a nice, not TOO sweet, drink for a warm day. It’s a great fruity Weißbiervariante (Weißbier variation), and a surprising addition to any party. (Can’t find Erdinger Weissbier? Substitute another Hefeweizen.)

Where to Buy Raspberry Syrup / Himbeersyrup

My Oma used to make it herself, but that’s more work than I like to do these days… You can buy bottles of the syrup from GermanShop24. I like adding a bit of it to water, for a less-sweet juice… or bubble water for a home made raspberry soda.
(Keep in mind, pancake syrup isn’t the same…but you CAN use this on pancakes)

How to Serve your Bowle

You can serve your raspberry beer punch recipe from a Punch Bowl or from a big Pitcher. Just be sure that every guest gets lots of fruit! Maybe even hand around spoons so they can get every last saturated Raspberry. That really is my favorite part!
