Grinch Punch

Grinch Punch

A simple addition to the holiday celebration is Grinch punch.  I've made several recipes - and some use pineapple juice and other ingredients  But the simplest (and the best) recipe is super simple.  Two ingredients plus the garnishes.

Recently I have had difficulty finding lime sherbet in the stores however, an appropriate substitute is lemon sherbet which is easy to find.  Simply put the sherbet in a mixing bowl, add some green food coloring, mix the color in and the lemon sherbet now fills the requirement for green sherbet.  I actually prefer the lemon sherbet as the punch taste is more like a bubbly lemonade rather than a flavor that most children have not acclimated to liking.  After mixing in the color the sherbet will be very soft - you will need to put the sherbet back into the freezer to refreeze as it is best to be frozen solid when actually making the punch.

If you want a "sign" to let your guests know that the beverage they are drinking (or about to drink) is Grinch Punch you might wish to print off this page on a heavy piece of paper - fold in half and stand beside the punch.

And if you want to add a finishing touch to the day/evening, prepare some Grinch jello.
