1- 2 liter of 7up or canda dry
1-fruit puch like hawaiin punch (you can use the strawberry kiwi if you want)
1-1/2 gallon of lime or orange or multi sherbert.
very refreshing. it always goes VERY quick.
Hi moms. I've having a Christmas in July craft night and dinner party TOMORROW NIGHT and need some recipes for non alcoholic punch recipes! I welcome all recipes--especially ones that are easy and fairly inexpensive. Thanks in advance!
the one that we use is
1- 2 liter of 7up or canda dry
1-fruit puch like hawaiin punch (you can use the strawberry kiwi if you want)
1-1/2 gallon of lime or orange or multi sherbert.
very refreshing. it always goes VERY quick.
2 quarts chilled ginger ale (or Sprite)
1/2 gallon sherbet (pink or green)
*Add 3 to 4 cups of fruit juice, corresponding to the sherbet flavor, sweetening if necessary. (optional, I never do this, but it's good if you do, like lemonade for lime sherbert, or raspberry punch for pink sherbet).
Scoop the sherbet in the ginger ale stir to soften, add ice. Put it in a pretty bowl and add scoops of sherbet on top. Don't mix the sherbet colors or use the rainbow one... it will look really gross when they colors melt together! But having just pink or green is really cute.
I usually just wing it with what I have on hand or whatever's on sale - I've made "Hawaiian Punch" from the dry mix and just added orange juice and ginger ale.
But here's another recipe that's good.
1/2 quart cold cranberry juice
1/2 quart cold orange juice
1/2 quart cold apple juice
1/2 quart cold Dole's Pineapple Juice
1 1/2 quarts cold ginger ale or Seven-Up
Ice
Something fun is to use a round jello mold and freeze some of the punch with some fruit in it - like berries - and then float it on top of the punch.
Yep, the one Momma L. told you about, is a classic party punch.
I had that growing up as a kid.
People still make it for parties.
Very good.
We have non-alcoholic punch in a big silver punch bowl every Christmas. We use a big can of pineapple juice, mixed with lots of cold lemonade soda, throw in cuts up strawberries, orange slices, mint leaves, passionfruit pulp/seeds and lots of ice. Very refreshing!
2 lemons
3 large oranges
1 (6 ounce) can frozen lemonade concentrate
1 liter club soda
2 (750 milliliter) bottles sparkling apple cider
1 tablespoon white sugar
2 trays ice cubes
Thinly slice the lemons and the oranges and place in a large punch bowl. Pour in the thawed lemonade. Gently stir in the club soda and the sparkling apple cider. Add sugar to taste. Add ice.
Hope this helps!
One that I got from a friend that is simple and looks beautiful:
one can frozen berry punch concentrate, diluted
one 2-liter bottle grapefruit soda
add frozen mixed berries instead of ice cubes - the berries add color and flavor
This is my family's favorite:
2 liters of Sprite (or 7up or Sierra Mist).
1 tub of sherbet. I like to use rainbow sherbet, but raspberry is good too
1/2 gallon of lemonade. Or you can make frozen lemonade.
Mix and enjoy!
I use a large can of frozen concentrate lemonade or limeade -- whatever is cheaper
a tub of sherbet --try to get pink because the green makes it a really hideous color (It tastes great, so I use the green for halloween)
Gingerale to fill the bowl. - 2 - 4 liters depending
An Ice ring to keep it cold -- I freeze gingerale -
Add sherbet and gingerale as you need it.
YMMV
