Lemon Lime Punch

This is a great punch - sweet and yellow! Most punches are pink and strawberry based...making this punch a hit! (No pun intended!)
Lemon Lime Punch
3 pkgs lemonade (unsweetened)
1 1/2 cups pineapple juice
2 1/2 to 3 cups sugar (add to taste)
water (add to taste)
1 sliced lemon
1 sliced lime
Mix lemonade, pineapple juice, and sugar in punch bowl.
Add water to desired consistency and taste.
When ready to serve, add sliced lemon and lime. They will float at the top of the punch!
*To fill the container in the picture I doubled the recipe.
*I always freeze part of the punch and add it to the container at the party.

Creamy Peppermint Punch

This is a Christmas drink - but, I could enjoy peppermint flavors all year long!

1 quart eggnog
1 (1-liter) bottle club soda, chilled
1/2 gallon peppermint ice cream, softened
Hard peppermint candies, crushed

Stir together first 3 ingredients in a punch bowl or large bowl; sprinkle with peppermint candy, and serve immediately.

*Punch may be made ahead, without crushed peppermint candies, and chilled 2 hours.
*If you serve this in a large punch bowl, hang peppermint candy canes on the bowl's rim.
