4-Fruit Wedding Punch

Home | Recipes | 4
Beverages

Ingredients:

  • 2 Parts orange juice
  • 2 Parts lemonade
  • 1 Part pineapple juice
  • 1 Part grapefruit juice (optional; but gives a nice tang)
ONE BATCH, ACCORDING TO "MOM
  • 2 qt Lemonade from a mix; prepared
  • 1 cn (12-oz) frozen orange juice; reconstituted
  • 1/2 "tall can" frozen pineapple juice; reconstituted
  • 1/2 "tall can" grapefruit juice; reconstituted (optional)

Directions:

This recipe contains no carbonation and no ice cream. I have not tried it spiked, but you could probably add rum to it (I'm not up on alcohol, but I believe that's supposed to be good in punch). This is our family's punch recipe--we serve it for all special occasions.
 
I will give what I think are the proportions first, then I'll give the exact amounts my mother-in-law uses for the 11 people in our extended family.
 
*Sorry, I don't know the size of the "tall can", but it's the standard U.S. size that is larger than the 12-oz.-can size.
 
Prepare lemonade. Reconstitute orange juice, pineapple juice,and grapefruit juice, according to package directions, and in separate containers. Add lemonade to punch bowl. Add all of the orange juice, 1/2 (up to 3/4) of the pineapple juice, and 1/2 of the grapefruit juice.
 
Slice thin orange wheels and float on top for a festive look. Cherries would also look nice.
