I have had a punch made with ice tea, but I do not have the recipe. It was very good & refreshing.

That’s a fun idea. I need non-alcoholic alternatives for our family get-togethers. My other family member will drink but me and my hubby dont so it’s better for everyone to have the options of something else but not feel like we’re depriving anyone from having a good time.

These are fun ideas especially for the non (rare) drinker as myself! I love to mix fruits (already packaged or fresh like strawberries, blue berries, bananas etc) in blender and poor soy vaniella milk with some ice cubes top with home made wipe cream. so now these gives me more of idea for holidays too.
