I thought anything with like a just juice base and gingerale or lemonade was where I thought, but thanks for those ideas.

Isn't creme do menthe acoholic!I pretty sure the recipe I used had cold tea in it.I found this one, but I think we used lemonade instead of ginger ale.FRUIT PUNCH 2.4 litres (� gallon) cold tea (strained) 900g (2 lbs) sugar juice of 12 lemons (well strained) 2.4 litres (� gallon) grapefruit juice 2 x 450g (16oz) cans pineapple juice 750 ml fruit cup or mixed fruit juice 1.2 litres (2 pints) lemonade 4.5 litres dry ginger ale
The tea helps to balance out the sweetness.No milk in the tea please:-)And really you can vary it according to your taste.

Also can u make it up prior to the event, or does in need to be made when needed, I realise lemonade or gingerale would be added on the day!

You used to be able to buy a punch base, at the wine shops (it's non alcoholic, when catering I always bought it from Toops) and you just added the ginger ale and lemonade when serving. Otherwise try this: 1 1ltr pack apple juice. 1 ""orange juice 1 "" grapefruit juice. 1 bottle white sparkling grape juice and lemonade to taste. *Add last* Add slices of orange or grapefuit to the bowl if desired. Serve over lots of crushed ice in tall glasses.

I used this one last night made 10 ltrs almost and had non left
Rachel’s Punch 1 litre strong tea 1 cup sugar 1 or 2 cups cordial (lemon, lime or orange) - I use Roses Lime Cordial from the supermarket - put it in undiluted. 3 litres fruit juice (orange, grapefruit, pineapple) Allow to cool.
3 litres lemonade 3 litres gingerale TOTAL = 10 litres or 50 glasses
Make the tea, and after about 20 mins pour onto 1 cup sugar, and stir till sugar is dissolved. Add the cordial and fruit juices. Chill this mixture in two containers of equal amounts. When ready pour one container of mixture into punch bowl (or large mixing bowl) adding 1.5L of chilled lemonade and gingerale. Make up the second 'batch' when ready. You could make up the whole amount if you have a large enough bowl/bucket!

I posted the recipe in post number nine.Given to me by my friend Rachel.
It is the lime cordial which is th e secret.
Also, I have purchased a bucket, onlyused for punch and ginger beer. So it is easy to mix

I would have the tea made and sugared. And in a jug. And then the other ingredients.
Punch is all about ratios.
So one bottle of each of the juices, one liter of tea, one glug of cordial, one bottle of lemonade, one of ginger ale.
It only takes a moment to fill the punch bowl. Give the job to your mother in law or bridesmaid
