best juice for parties

Friends,
We are having a after dinner party on October 6th for my husband's colleagues in my place. Please suggest me what to serve them especially drinks ( no alcohol)
For our last party the items were cheese cake, chocolate coated strawberry, fruit salad, de-caf coffee and tea. I want to try something different.
Thank you!

Have you tried fruit punches? You can probably google for recipes of fruit punch. There are versions of alcoholic drinks without the alcohol - like pina colada without using rum, etc.

Hi Sindhu,

If you like you can try this and see how this tastes. If you don't like to add jello then try pineapple or other juices you like.

FRUIT JUICE PUNCH

2 boxes Jello (pick flavor or color you want) 3 c. sugar 3 c. hot water 32 oz. fruit juice (flavor or color you want) 6 oz. lemon juice 4 c. water 2 tsp. almond extract 2 qts. ginger ale Pick Jello and fruit juice by what color and/or flavor you want your punch. Dissolve Jello, sugar in 3 cups boiling water. Add fruit juice, lemon juice, water and almond extract. Chill until needed then add ginger ale. Makes 2 gallons.

Thank you, Shobana. I haven't tried it before. Madhu has given me the recipe. Will let you know how it turned out.

Sindhu

Hi Madhu,
Thank you so much . Will try and let you know how it turned out.

BTW, how are your mint plants?

best,
Sindhu

hi sindhu,

My mint is doing well. Thank you. Did you see my hibiscus in the my flower garden thread? Take a look.

No, I did not. I will get back to you soon.

Hi Sindhu,

Try out Eljaypee's fruit juices in the recipies thread. You get a lot of varities.

Thanks, Rajmi. I will look at it for sure.

Sindhu

Although your party is long since over for your next party you may wish to serve Apple Cider, especially warm in a slow-cooker at the entrance into which you keep refilling cider made from packaged mix [good and welcome especially in Fall & Winter months].

Another drink which has been a success in warmer times is a punch made out of Lemon or other citrus sherbet to which ginger syrup or ginger ale is added. You may also melt some lemon ice-cream into it if you want a creamier finish. Float some fruitbits [can be frozen-since that will nicely substitute for ice-pieces w/o diluting the punch!
Enjoy!
