Here is a fun drink idea. . . . Make 6
different colors of Kool-Aid. . . .blue, red, green, orange, yellow, purple. {You
might want to assign this out unless you have a bazillion ice cube trays!!!} Freeze
each color into ice-cubes. Store in zip-loc bags. When ready to serve, put ice cubes in
small cups and pour well chilled Sprite {Faith} over them. Put coordinating colors in
cups. . . .green and red might make a brown drink!!!
I'm a confetti person, and I love to put "edible" confetti on any table. Just
sprinkle all over tables . . . .skittles, M & M's, lifesavers, the possibilities are
endless and people love to sit and eat the confetti!!!

This is the absolute best punch recipe ever. I serve it all
the time. I served it at a bridal shower that I helped with. The bride then and
there changed the punch that she was serving at her reception a few weeks later to the one
that I had brought. :)
Strawberry Lime Punch
1 1/2 cups pineapple juice
1/2 cup orange juice
2 Tablespoons lime juice
1/2 cup sugar
1 package (10 ounces) frozen sliced strawberries with sugar, thawed
4 1/2 cups lemon-lime soda
You can mix the first 5 ingredients together ahead of time
and keep in a bowl or a pitcher and then add the soda just before you serve it. This helps
when you are serving lots of people and have to keep the punch coming pretty quickly.

Delicious punch:

Mix altogether and enjoy. To decrease foam, pour pop in
slowly or put ice cream in last. If it seems too sweet, dilute the juice with 1-3 cans of

I found cans of Bear Creek "Blender Buddies Peach
Smoothie Drink Mix" at Costco, but
didn't like the recipe on the can, so I created this one and it's become our favorite.
1/3 cup Blender Buddy mix
2/3 cup vanilla ice cream (we like to use sugar-free low-fat ice cream)
6 oz fat free fruit yogurt (we like using orange creamsicle)
1/2 cup orange/guava juice
Blend until well-mixed. Add 1 1/2 cup crushed ice. Blend for another 2
minutes. Makes 2 servings.

WHITE CHRISTMAS PUNCH
1 (6oz.) can frozen limeade, diluted
8 c. water
3 c. sugar
2 qt. 7-Up
Fresh lime slices
Maraschino cherry halves (optional)
Combine limeade with water and sugar. Stir until sugar dissolves. Freeze until solid. Two
hours before serving, remove from freezer and allow to thaw in punch bowl. One hour before
serving, pour 2 quarts 7-Up over and allow to soften. Mash with a potato masher. Float
fresh lime slices topped with maraschino cherry halves. (It's been my experience that the
frozen mixture can be put in the punch bowl much later than 2 hours before serving and
mashed to a good consistency.)
(Makes 1 1/2 gallons or 54 punch cups.)
