Halloween Punch
Serving: 24 servings
12 oz orange juice concentrate, frozen
12 oz grape juice, white
2 lt 7-Up
1 pt sherbet, lemon or lime
green food coloring
Mix together orange juice, white grape juice, 7-Up, lemon or lime sherbet, and several drops of green food coloring
If desired, serve with large, buoyant, and well-washed plastic spiders on the top!
(For adult party: add rum or vodka to taste, optional)
*Get a plastic witch’s cauldron and put a piece of dry ice in it. Pour the brew over the ice and watch the kids’ eyes with delight! (caution should be taken when using dry ice – you should not touch it)
*Take a rubber face mask; cover the eyes, nostrils and mouth with duct tape to seal all openings. Fill a large bowl with ice or have a cookie sheet covered with cornmeal, to cushion the mask. Place the mask in the bowl/sheet, pour water into the mask. Place in freezer for several hours until frozen solid. When you’re ready to serve your punch, take mask out of freezer and dip quickly into hot water to make the ice separate from the mask. Place the piece of ice face-up into the punch bowl. It will look like a face floating in the punch!
Buy some new latex gloves (without powder). Wash two out and fill with water. Fasten the arms closed with a twist-tie or rubberband. Freeze it. When frozen solid, carefully cut away the glove and place one hand on each side of the “ice face” in the punch before serving. Make sure you place the hands downward.
