Have any Favorite Party Punch Recipes?

Question

Ok, so I'm having a party and I'm serving punch. I know that whenever I go to a party, I go for the punch and appetizers. So, does anyone have any really good or even family favorite party punch recipes. NON-ALCOHOLIC PLEASE! There will be a bunch of little kids and I don't even want to try to take that risk. Now don't just go and copy something from the internet. I want recipes you have tried and know are good. I know only two and they both deal with sherbet and Hawaiian fruit punch. So, good ideas. They will be served with chips, salsa, dip, quiche and so on. Also, if you hae any good "elegant" snack ideas, let me know. Well, thanks for all and any help. :)

Answer 1

I made this punch for a baby shower, and it was good! You will need a can of Country Time pink lemonade, club soda or sprite, and a packet of strawberry jello. Dump about half of the lemonade, the entire jello packet and the seltzer into the your serving bowl. Add more lemonade, as necessary. Add fresh fruit of your choice to the concotion for looks (Cut strawberries, blue berries, raspberries, etc.)

Answer 2

I used this one last weekend. Very good!

Appetizer!


If you like figs, try this one:

Slice figs in half lengthwise
fill w/ blue cheese crumbles
top w/ crushed walnuts

You can make these ahead of time, cover w/ plastic wrap and put in the fridge until it's time to serve.

Answer 4

pineapple juice, orange juice, and cranberry juice is good all mixed together.

you can make Kool-Aid and add in some sprite to it and some fruit slices, like pineapple rings, and orange slices. even cherries or strawberries are good to add in there.
make different flavors of kool-aid. you can also use cream soda to some of the flavors.

you can add sprite, 7 Up, sierra mist, or any lemon lime soda to any kind of drink or juice and it'll turn out good.

Answer 5

Try cranberry juice,peach juice and 7-up.
Very tasty.
If you want to get creative freeze maraschino cherries in ice cubes and place one in each glass.
Float orange and lemon slices on top in your punch bowl.
