The simplest punch recipe I have and use ALL THE TIME is:
2 cans of frozen punch or juice concentrate (don't thaw)
1 2L bottle of 7-up/ginger ale or anything similar
1 cup of orange juice
swig of lemon juice
Mix these ingredients together in a punch bowl.
I always add ice cubes, sliced orange pieces, cherries, frozen raspberries, limes............any combination of that. OR you can make an ice block by freezing ice or juice and some cut fruit.
I've never had a complaint with this recipe and entertain quite regularly.
