Let’s toast to celebrations!

On several occasions I’ve talked about the awesome recipe box I got at my wedding shower.  Handwritten recipes from friends and family filled the box with desserts, snacks, drinks, main dishes and more.  

One of the amazing (non-alcoholic) drink recipes was Pink Lady Punch.  My mom told me it was her mom’s favorite.  Sharing some of her recollections seemed appropriate, so I asked her what she remembered about this family favorite.

“My Mom didn’t throw a lot of parties when I was growing up.  However, when she did they were always special. I remember all the goodies and drinks she would make. Pink Lady Punch was her absolute favorite. 

As a matter of fact, she made this for me on two very special occasions.   Can you guess which two?  My High School Graduation and my Bridal Shower.  As a result, this punch has become a favorite of mine as well.

Punch bowls were big when I first got married.  So this punch recipe has been used for holidays and parties your father and I hosted over the years — including your graduation.”

Pink Lady Punch Recipe

Would you believe that I can remember my high school graduation party like it was yesterday?  A large canopy tent was set up in the back yard to provide shade for the guests.   And in the front yard was one of the changeable letter signs (with marquee letters).  Yep, just like the ones you see in front of a church or school.  OMG.  It was mortifying and awesome all at the same time.  

As you may (or may not) know, I’m an identical twin — so the party was double the fun.  My parents spared no expense and the memories will live on in my heart forever, including this amazing punch recipe.  Now I’m sitting here wishing I had a picture to share (because my sister and I had matching outfits on and all).  My cheeks officially hurt from all the smiling and chuckling I’m doing over here.

Anywho, whether you’re hosting a baby shower, a graduation party or a holiday celebration, this Pink Lady Punch is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.  I’m sure this recipe already exists somewhere on the world wide web.  However, this is something personal and special, so I wanted to share it with you today. 

I did want to mention that I cut the recipe in half and used a pitcher (specifically, this one: Libbey Pitcher) for photographing.  While punch bowls may not be as popular as they used to be, there are still plenty of options out there.  And who knows, maybe this punch recipe will be passed down to your children someday…

Can you make punch ahead of time?

You can make punch ahead of time; however, no more than one day ahead and preferably the morning of your event.  Some punch recipes require adding additional ingredients right before serving, such as this Pink Lady Punch.

How do you make a punch?

Most punch recipes consist of mixing different liquid ingredients into a bowl or pitcher and require chilling.

Non-Alcoholic Punch Recipe Ingredients:

• cranberry juice
• sugar
• pineapple juice or grapefruit juice
• ginger ale, chilled
• cranberries, optional for garnish

1. Start by slowly stirring the cranberry juice with the sugar until it’s dissolved.
2. Add the pineapple juice and chill until it’s time to serve. 
3. Pour into punch bowl or pitcher and add ginger ale.

Of course, you can add cranberries for garnish or a slice of pineapple, maybe?  It’s delicious nonetheless.

Let’s raise a glass to a new year that’ll be filled with celebrations and memories to last us a lifetime.  Cheers, and enjoy!
