Title: Sharon Maasdam's Easy Punch
Categories: Beverages
Yield: 6 Servings

12	oz	Frozen lemonade concentrate undiluted, thawed
46	oz	Can pineapple juice
1		2-liter bottle lemon-lime soda (7-up)
1		2-liter bottle grapefruit flavored soda (Squirt)
		Ice ring or ice cubes
GARNISH
		Fresh lemon, lime or orange slices, or strawberries

This is a stand-by punch recipe from FoodDay home economist Sharon Maasdam. Often it's difficult to judge how much punch is needed for a crowd. Here, you mix up one batch at a time, and the unopened juices can be used at a later time. Use red Squirt, if available, for a reddish looking punch.

Mix thawed lemonade and pineapple juices together. Add sodas and ice ring just before serving. Add citrus slices or strawberries for garnish.

Makes about 6 quarts or 48 each 4-ounce servings
