Fruit Slushy Punch Recipe 455

Steps:

• Bring the sugar, water, and strawberry flavored gelatin to a boil in a large saucepan; boil for 3 minutes. Stir in the pineapple juice, lemon juice, and orange juice. Divide mixture into 2 separate containers and freeze.
• Combine the contents of 1 container with 1 bottle of the lemon-lime flavored carbonated beverage in a punch bowl; stir until slushy. Repeat with remaining portions as needed.

Steps:

• In a blender, combine bananas, sugar and 3 cups water. Blend until smooth. Pour into a large bowl and stir in pineapple juice. Blend in orange juice concentrate, lemonade concentrate and 3 cups water. Divide into 3 plastic containers and freeze until solid.
• Remove from freezer 3 to 4 hours before serving. Using one portion at a time, place slush in a punch bowl and pour in 1 liter of ginger ale for each.

I left out the raspberries because a) I know Michelle doesn't like raspberries and b) I don't really like things that need to be chewed in my drink. I didn't have a six quart container, so I divided the ingredients by two as best I could and mixed them together in two plastic freezer bags. I think this is MUCH easier then freezing in one container. The punch was alot easier to get out of the bags than a container. And instead of mixing the soda in 1/2 cup increments, I added about the same amount of soda as punch to the punch bowl to make things a little easier. I'm so glad you all liked the punch....it's my favorite punch recipe. I wish I could take credit for it, but I lifted it from a magazine quite a few years ago :)

Steps:

• Dissolve sugar in boiling water. Add orange juice concentrate, bananas and pineapple, stirring until orange juice is dissolved. Stir in soda; pour into a large container or several small containers and freeze. Thaw approximately 1 hour or until slushy before serving. Variation: Add fresh sliced peaches or seedless grapes.

Steps:

• Mix jello and sugar with boiling water until dissolved completely.
• Add lemonade and pineapple juice. Mix well.
• Add tap water and mix well.
• Pour mixture into freezer safe containers or gallon freezer bags. Place in freezer over night.
• Take out to thaw 2 hours before serving.
• If using containers, use butter knife to break up. If using baggies, squish bags to break up.

• Pour ginger ale over top of punch, stirring to make mixture slushy.
• Depending on how slushy you want your punch, will be the amount of gingerale or Sprite you add.
