- Wonderful for any large party...change jello to any flavor, make a few ice cubes with some of the mixture and add any fruit to float in punch
- Made it for daughter's wedding, a GREAT hit!!
- I made this punch for an event I was having and since then I have had several requests to make it for graduation parties, weddings, and other events. For very large crowds you can double the ginger ale and the taste is still great!
