DASH. OF. THIS. AND. THAT

WEDDING PARTY PUNCH

 

Of course this may be used for any occasion,  It was a hit at my nephews His/Her wedding shower. While in the grocery store, my sister called and asked what she should buy for punch. I blurted some ingredients and this is what we created. Now we have quite a few requests for the recipe. We did not add any extra sugar.

 

Ingredients:

 

2  fresh pineapples (slice 5 rings for decoration and the rest into bite- sized chunks)

5 maraschino cherries

1 cup strawberries (cut in quarters)

1 cup red and/or green grapes (cut in half)

juice of one lemon

2 cups orange juice

2 cups pineapple juice

1 750ml or a fifth of rum

1 cup peach schnapps

1 2 liter bottle gingerale

1 bottle of champagne

small ice cubes

 sugar or simple syrup to taste (see recipe)
