Summer Spiked Punch

With so many things to celebrate these days, drinks are in order. This cocktail is more like a dessert and drink in one and it’s perfect on a hot summer day. I used to request this punch for birthday parties growing up — the non-alcoholic version of course. Either way, Summer Spiked Punch is a crowd pleaser and it’s so simple to whip up.

Ingredients:

• Hawaiian Punch — Fruit Juicy Red
• 7-up
• Frozen sliced strawberries
• Rainbow sherbert
• Rum(optional)

Directions:

1. Mix equal parts Hawaiian Punch and 7-Up. Add frozen strawberries and top with sherbert.
2. You could serve it as is, but it’s time like these, that I ask myself: “What would Jack Sparrow do?” (Add Rum)
3. Pour into glasses and bottoms up!

Note: I used diet 7-Up to cut down on the sugar and no one noticed. There is also a light version of the Hawaiian Punch!
