Here is a recipe I have had since the 70's and it is very good. 1 large 36oz can unsweetened pineapple juice 1 12 oz can frozen orange juice concentrate 1 12 oz can frozen lemonade concentrate 1/2 cup sugar 6 cups water 2 quarts ginger ale or one bottle of champagne dissolve 1/2 cup sugar in 6 cups of water. Add orange juice and lemonade concentrate and amount of water called for on each can. usually 3 cans each add pineapple juice. Pour into containers and freeze. I use old 1/2 gallon milk cartons. This makes 1 and 1/2 gallons mix. When ready to serve, thaw until slushy add the ginger ale or champagne. This can be done in a punch bowl or in a pitcher. I usually use half mixture and half ginger ale when serving if making in a pitcher. Sometimes I make it up and just let it completely thaw in fridge and mix it half and half with ginger ale in a glass for one serving at a time. I have mixed it up and just used it, didn't freeze. Pretty versatile stuff.

I make this punch for Thanksgiving. The kids love having their own special drink, and it's not too sweet for adults (who have been known to lace their individual cups with a splash of vodka...) APPLE HARVEST PUNCH 2 Cups Chilled Cranberry Juice (not as sweet as the cocktail) 2 Cups Apple Cider 1 l/2 Cups Orange Juice 2 Cups Chilled Club Soda The recipe I found calls for thin orange slices and frozen cranberries to be floated in it. But in place of frz. cranberries, I usually freeze additional cranberry juice in a ring mold and put that in before serving to help keep chilled without diluting. And in place of the oranges, I very thinly slice red delicious apples crosswise and float them in the punch. Doing apples instead of oranges sets you up for the "red" flavors that make it a holiday punch. They also differentiate it from all the citrus/sherbert punches.

Made this for years!! It is very good! Apricot Slush 1 qt pineapple juice 1 qt apricot juice ( I think I had to buy apricot nectar) 12 oz frozen lemonade 12 oz frozen orange juice 1 pint apricot brandy 1 cup vodka Mix and freeze in ice cream pail. To serve fill glass half full. Then add 7-Up or Squirt to fill the glass. These are fantastic! Just watch out they pack a punch! LOL Now this one I haven't made, I kept wanting to and everyone was satisfied with the apricot stuff. lol Frozen Daquiris 4 large cans frozen lemonade and 2 cans water 2 small cans frozen limeade and 1 can water 3 lg bottles 7-Up 1- 5th Bacardi rum (light) Blend together and freeze in small containers. Take out as much as needed and thaw to a slush about 1 hour before serving. **I am pretty certain our grocery store doesn't carry the 6oz cans anymore so you'd need to do 1 lg can limeade with a half of can of water**
