Baby Shower Blue Cloud Punch

Kittencalskitchen's Note:

The ice cream will melt in the punch and turn it into a baby blue colour leaving frothy blue and white clouds floating on top --- this should serve around 20 people but of coarse it will depend on the size of glasses used --- this punch may be prepared slightly in advance with the top covered tightly with plastic wrap so that the 7-Up will not loose it's bubbles, add in scoops of ice cream before serving --- for a pink punch see my Baby Shower Pink Cloud Punch

This is delicious and so creative! I made this recently for a friends shower and got tons of requests for the recipe. My punch bowl was a little too small, so I had to divide it into two before adding the icecream. It was nice to have the second one already ready and waiting. I will definitly be making this again!

Just made this for my daughter-in-laws baby shower. The color scared me at first but the color changed to a beautiful pastel green when we added the ice cream. Taste was wonderful!! Thanks for helping to make our party a hit Kittencal. On tried-and-true recipes you are number one in my book!!

Made this for a baby (boy) shower this weekend. Not only did it look super cute but I saw several (adults) go back for seconds and thirds---I did too! It was tart but sweet at the same time. I didn't add any extra sugar and I think it was perfect that way. Thanks so much Kittencal!!
