Thirsty Thursday - Wedding Punch

I decided to come up with my own punch recipe when we got married.  It took a little experimenting (I discovered that pineapple juice and soda cancel each other out, and it's just weird), but I finally came up with a recipe that had a good balance of flavors, and just the right amount of alcohol. It was a huge hit at the wedding, and it disappeared fast!

Wedding Punch

Ingredients
  • 1 qt Hawaiian Punch (Fruit Juicy Red)
  • 1 can pink lemonade concentrate
  • 2 cans water 
  • 1/2 can Peach schnapps
  • 1 can Spiced rum
  • 2L bottle of Sprite (or generic lemon-lime soda)
Instructions
Mix all ingredients except Sprite.
Add Sprite just before serving.

I typically store the mix in a sealed pitcher or a Hawaiian Punch jug until it's ready to serve.  You can also make this non-alcoholic and just leave out the schnapps and the rum, and it's still a tasty mix.


Sadly, I don't have a picture of the punch.  But here's a picture of one of our wedding toast flutes!
