Celebration Punch for a Bunch… Plus 35+ Summer Drink Recipes

Sharing is caring!

I think you understand by now how much we entertain and enjoy entertaining at our home. Yes, it’s a lot of work but we love celebrating….everything! Just this past week, we hosted Gabrielle’s Sweet 16 Celebration for 30 of her friends. We planned a budget-friendly event where a candy bar and chocolate fountain were the biggest hit of all. You can read about the planning details by clicking this link.

Since the theme for the event was a “pool party”. I thought it would be fun to create a tropical type punch for the kids to enjoy. It was so popular, I had to make two batches (thank goodness I had enough ingredients on hand). I’m calling this Celebration Punch for a Bunch because it makes a lot AND we were celebrating. I hope you enjoy.
