Valentine party punch + giveaway

My Christmas decorations aren’t all put away yet and my brain has already moved on to Valentine’s. I know… it’s just who I am. {snicker}

Over the holidays my sister-in-law made this incredible punch and she had kids and adults alike clammmoring for it. It was fabulous. I took her idea, tweaked it just a bit (thanks Norma!) and came up with this Valentine party punch!  

Here’s what you’ll need per flute serving (punch bowl):

    • 1/3 Sierra Mist Natural (2 liter)
    • 1/3 tropical punch (2 liter)
    • 1/3 scoop pineapple sherbet (1/2 gallon)

Oh, and there’s a GIVEAWAY! {Yay! Free Stuff!} ~ win a Sierra Mist Natural gift pack (shaker, drink garnish/sugars, party glasses) & a $50 AMEX Gift Card

    I’m not super creative with the cocktails per se but we do like apple cider fixed up with some cloves, cinnamon stick, orange rind, lemon rind, fresh orange juice and a little maple syrup. Let that simmer for awhile (your house will smell sooo good) and then drink. Thanks, Maureen (jnomaxx at hotmail dot com)

    My favorite punch recipe is rainbow sherbet, lemon lime soda and pineapple juice. If desired. alcohol soaked fruit can be added. I also like sangria that is made with marsala wine and sierra mist and orange slices.

    I don’t drink and know nothing about cocktails, but I have mixed margarita mix with Squirt( I love Squirt!!!). I’m sure Sierra Mist would be good too. I love your drink idea for a thing at my children’s school.

    I would like Appletini recipe

    1 1/2 oz Smirnoff® Green Apple Twist vodka
    1 oz DeKuyper® Sour Apple Pucker schnapps

    Stir ingredients together with crushed ice in a cocktail/martini glass, and serve.

    My twist to this would be to put some sierra mist in here…I think that would be great!

    I don’t really have any ‘go to’ recipes. I use the tradition sherbert, ginger ale, 7 up mixture or ask someone else to bring one. Now, I do like homemade cocoa and Strawberry Daiquiris with slivers of strawberries and extra whip topping.. minus the alcohol these days since I’m on too many pain pills but just love the taste of them.
