Punch Bowl Mixed Drink...

I'm gonna have a girly g2g at the house, a friend suggested having a bunch bowl mixed drink for the nite... anyone have any good recipes??

 

Re: Punch Bowl Mixed Drink...

  • I don't have the recipe on hand, but you can google it....depending on how girly you want, my friend made a punch called "panty dropper" it was delicious, but desserty.
  • Check out epicurious.com for drink ideas.  They have loads and you can search by the type of liquor.
  • I don't know what this is really called, but I call it ghetto jungle juice.

    For a 2gal pitcher -

    I use:

    2 packets of blue raspberry lemonade koolaid mix (not ice blue raspberry, has to be blue raspberry lemonade - some stores do not carry this.)

    1 or 2 - 2L of Mt. Dew

    and add vodka to taste. I usually poured the vodka in first - filled 1/4 of the pitcher with vodka and added the koolaid mix, and then the mt dew til it was full. It will knock you off your boots after a glass or two - depending on your tolerance level. :)

    Strawberry Lemonade

    in a pitcher 

    vodka to taste

    4-5 muddled or fine chopped strawberries - great use for berries that are getting too soft to eat out of hand, but are still good.

    lemon juice and some slices of lemon tossed in for color

    splash of sour mix

    fill with lemonade 

     

    2) Add vodka to any punch recipie

     

    3) spiked hot (or cold) cider

    That sounds like it's going to produce the hangover from hell with all of that sugar (the Mountain Dew alone has 77grams). 

    OP, I'd do something a little more swank.  Here are some ideas for a few different types of alcohol.

    Rum - Napa Valley Winter Punch

    Champagne - Champagne Punch

    Gin - Pineapple Gin Punch

    Bourbon - Bourbon Punch with Pink Grapefruit and Mint

    Vodka - Cranberry Vodka Punch
