Dragon Punch

This colourful non-alcoholic punch mixes well with a variety of spirits and liqueurs and is a staple of parties at Rainbow Dragon's Lair. (I prefer to serve a virgin punch and allow responsible adults to spike their own, if desired, so that everyone knows exactly how much alcohol they are consuming.)

Dragon Punch


Ingredients:
  • 50% orange juice
  • 25% ginger ale
  • 10% lemon juice
  • 10% lime juice
  • 5% grenadine
  • cocktail cherries & orange slices for garnish

Directions:

Combine juices, ginger ale and grenadine in a punch bowl or juice pitcher and mix well.
Serve chilled in a tall glass, garnished with fruit and a parasol.
