This punch is sure to [unknowingly?] lift holiday spirits during your dysfunctional [or highly functional] family celebration befitting of the season.

What you need:
1 ice ring [yes, yes - use your favorite mold for this one, just fill it on party morning & freeze!]
40 ounces bottle grape juice
48 ounces can pineapple juice
2 liter bottle of ginger ale
2 oranges
2 limes
1 fifth [yes!] of your favorite vodka
What you need to do:
Slice oranges & limes into thin rounds - set aside [the fruit, not you]. Place ice ring in bottom of punch bowl, add juices - then ginger ale and VODKA! Float orange & lime slices and serve.
This is traditionally a Mardi Gras punch - so it ought to deliver just the zing you need to survive any host of family functions.
Cheers!
Think I'll keep a pitcher in the fridge to get me through the next week. Sounds zesty.
ReplyDeleteI'd just switch it around a bit...40 oz of gin...48 oz of rum, 2 liter bottle of ginger ale, oranges, limes...splash of grape and pineapple juice and then the 1/5 of vodka. Why be standing for the holidays...
ReplyDeleteThis sounds perfect! Just what I need after wrapping so many presents so badly...
