Garnish and Serve (3 minutes): Hang the mini peppermint candy canes around the rim of the punch bowl. Float the reserved scoops of ice cream on top of the punch. Serve immediately and enjoy!
For a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the rum.
If you don't have mini candy canes, crushed peppermint candies also make a beautiful garnish.
To make ahead, combine the ice cream, eggnog, and rum (if using) and refrigerate. Add the ginger ale just before serving to maintain its fizz.
Consider using a high-quality eggnog for the best flavor. Homemade eggnog is especially delicious.
