BANANA BRUNCH PUNCH

Banana Brunch Punch image

A cold glass of refreshing punch really brightens a brunch. It's nice to serve a crisp beverage like this that's more spectacular than plain juice. With bananas, orange juice and lemonade, it can add tropical flair to a winter day. -Mary Anne McWhirter, Pearland, Texas

BUNCH OF PUNCH

I was a caterer for over 40 years and served more punch than I can remember, this was by far the favorite and least expensive for a large gathering. I would make an ice-ring using lemonade and add sliced oranges, lemons and lime to float in punch bowl. Looks great and doesn't dilute the punch.
