Note
For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the rosé wine with grape juice or raspberry juice and replace the champagne with sparkling cider or club soda.
To make the simple syrup ahead of time, dissolve the sugar in an equal amount of hot water. This ensures the sugar integrates smoothly into the cold punch.
Add the sherbet and sparkling wine immediately before serving to maintain the fizz and prevent the sherbet from melting completely.
If the punch is too tart, you can add a little more sugar or a splash of simple syrup to taste.
Garnish with fresh raspberries and lemon slices for an attractive presentation.
