Ryadread from the Halloween Forum

 I use an extremely simple & easy to make punch that is always a big hit. With everything else to do for our Halloween parties it's nice to be able to throw together a fast punch that is also fast to remake & refill.

Keep in mind my parties are huge so this recipe is for a big cauldron. Modify it for less or more people, the best thing about this punch is you really can't ruin it.

Use:

1 Gallon Red Hawaiian Punch
2 Cans Frozen Orange Juice or Frozen Lemonaide (add frozen, without water)
1 2Liter Bottle Sprite or Squirt soda
Add Smirnoff Raspberry Twist Vodka to taste/potency

Wait until right before you are ready to serve to mix this punch as it tends to go flat overnight.

Of course the punch bowl that you use is just as important as the punch itself. I always use a big cauldron and love to drop nice little surprises into the punch...gummy worms, eyeballs, green radioactive glowsticks make the punch look good and ghastly...etc

Happy Haunting! Hope this helps!

Jackielantern's Punch Recipe

This makes a great dark red color and contains very little sugar.

2 qts grape crystal light
2 gts rasberry ice crystal light
64 oz light cranberry juice
1 liter club soda
Barcardi Limon (or light) to taste

I've made a punch fountain & since this recipe has no pulp & very little sugar it hasn't damaged the pump. I just make sure to flush water thru the pump at the end of the night so the inside doesn't get gummed up.

Last year I used champagne and pomegranate juice. Mixed it in a cauldron, and added dry ice! I also got pomegranate seeds and froze them in very small ice cubes. I poured seeds in a few glasses by the cauldron too. And the look of the drink with the seeds is great!
Easy and simple and delicious – not to mention full of antioxidants!!! *************************************************************************************************************
LV Scott T 300 Proof Punch
Recipe? We don't need no...

Our punch recipe is basically this: every time someone else shows up with a bottle, the bartender pours a little into the cauldron, then adds a splash of punch base. Also, we throw in some watermelon (complete with rinds), oranges (complete with rind), and various soft drinks (complete with empty can). The resulting flavor changes from hour to hour and the appearance (rinds, cans, plastic rat, etc) adds to the overall ambience.

1/2 of a 1.75 Liter Bottle of Bacardi Rum
1/2 of a 1/75 Liter Bottle of Vodka (any brand)

I also cut up oranges and pineapples and throw them in - those pieces of fruit are VERY potent by the end of the night.

Spooky LIl' Girl's Frog in a Blender
  • 1 cup of ice
  • 2 oz vodka
  • 4 oz cranberry juice
  • 2 lime wheels
PREPARATION:
  1. Place all the ingredients in a blender (including the lime wheels).
  2. Blend for 3-5 seconds (ingredients will not be completely blended).
  3. Pour into a chilled hurricane glasses.
This is an interesting cocktail that is a great novelty for Halloween Parties. The "Frog" is actually lime wheels that are only slightly blended with the other ingredients, creating the idea of an old witches brew with pieces and parts floating in it. Add a few berries, grapes or apple slices for the look of even more unknown creature bodies inside your brew. The trick is to avoid blending until smooth as you normally would, only enough to chop things up and mix them together a bit.

Swamp Water
Get a little creepy with this swampy cocktail that is perfect for a Halloween Party. The optional "surprise" is a plasma-like substance made of spiked Jell-O that floats on top of the murky-colored liquid. Add a handful of green and brown straws and plastic frogs or other creepy crawlers to complete the Swamp Water atmosphere.INGREDIENTS:
  • 2 oz rum
  • 1/4 oz blue curaçao
  • 1 oz orange juice
  • 1/2 oz lemon juice
  • 1 package of Jell-O (optional)
  • 1 cup boiling water (optional)
  • 3/4 cup vodka (optional)
PREPARATION:
  1. Pour the rum, blue curaçao and juices into a cocktail shaker with ice.
  2. Shake well.
  3. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.

The Surprise: (optional)
Prepare ahead of time so that it's ready when you've finished shaking the Swamp Water.

  1. Dissolve the Jell-O in boiling water.
  2. Add the vodka and set it in the freezer.
  3. Just before the Jell-O gels up, whip it with a whisk.
  4. Let it set for at least 5 minutes.
  5. Carefully spoon The Surprise into the glass of Swamp Water.
