Party Punch Recipe for Baby Shower

I like to use Sprite and White grape juice. It looks like Champagne. I also take the fruit we serve and some of the white grape juice in a small ring. It make a very pretty presentation and it does not water down the punch as it melts.

I served both of these at a Fall baby shower and they were a hit, one warm and one cold for variety.

Warm and Spicy Punch

2 oranges
8 whole cloves
6 cups apple juice
1 cinnamon stick
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 cup honey
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 1/4 cups pineapple juice

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Stud the whole oranges with cloves, and bake for 30 minutes.
3. In a large saucepan, combine the apple juice and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and simmer 5 minutes.
4. Remove from heat, and stir in the nutmeg, honey, lemon juice, and pineapple juice.
5. Serve hot in a punch bowl with the 2 clove-studded baked oranges floating on top. (I served this out of a crockpot to keep it warm and for a nicer presentation)

Tea Punch

1 cup white sugar
1 cup strong brewed black tea (vanilla flavor optional)
4 cups orange juice
4 cups pineapple juice
4 cups prepared lemonade
1 (2 liter) bottle ginger ale, chilled
(or add a little vanilla flavoring if you can't find flavored tea)

1. In a pitcher, combine sugar and tea. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Stir in orange juice, pineapple juice and lemonade. Chill in refrigerator for 4 hours.
2. Just before serving, pour chilled juice mixture into a punch bowl and stir in ginger ale.

I have the perfect recipe!
4 packets strawberry kool aid
3 cups sugar
2 46oz cans of pineapple juice
4 quarts water

Mix it all together and then add a 2 liter bottle of gingerale right before the guests arrive.

I made this for a friend's shower and it was a hit!

Depends on the sex but I went for the sherbert, 7up and Hawaiian Punch. I would do red for a girl because it gives a pink color, or blue for a boy. But I didn't like the flavor of the blue so I did green for my baby shower. It was so tasty! Everyone loved it! Good luck on whatever you choose though!

2 liter of 7UP or Sprite and a big can or 1/2 jug of Hawaiian Punch. (for more flavor you can add pineapple juice too.)

You can also google for a punch recipe and come up w/a ton of recipes.

mix 1 bottle of cranberry juice with 1 2 liter of 7 up. then to sweeten add pinapple juice. Just a little pinapple juice. Taste test it until it's sweet enough.

p.s. it tastes better when cold.

My favorite is Renee M's suggestion - sherbert, 7up and Hawaiian Punch. Instead of 7up, I've also had it with Sprite, Ginger Ale and even Champagne before as well. I think the Ginger Ale was my favorite but they are all really good. I love the idea of red for a girl and blue or green for a boy. :-)

Hi L.,

I don't necessarily have a punch recipe, but I would however like to share a REALLY cute gift/centerpiece idea for the shower. Check out www.incredible-inedibles.com . Every baby shower I've gone to I've either given them as gifts to the mom-to-be or used as centerpieces for the tables. Hope this helps!

add sprite to any fruit juice, or combination of juices then add a bag of frozen fruit to keep it cold.

I do Hawaiian punch and 7 up with sherbet but what I thought was neat was a neighbor did a ring inside that had a ton of fruit in it with some sort of juice. As it melted it went into the punch as really good like cherries and such. G. W

Hi, L.! The best one I know..

1 frozen can orange-pinapple juice
1 frozen can Limeade
1 frozen can lemonade
3 cans water
about 3 quarters of a 2-liter bottle of sprite

Everytime I make this I am asked for the recipe, sweet and tangy and tart make the perfect combo.
