Halloween punch - help!

[JOHNOR]

hi!

i was wondering if any of you domestic god/godesses could give me a recipe for a halloween punch? something fruity and kind of gory looking? bear in mind we don't have certain things that you guys in the U.S/Canada/Germany may have (kool aid, sherbert etc..)

any help appreciated, would really love to make a big bowl this year.

I mix a grape kool-aide mix and cherry kool-aide mix to make a dark color punch. I fill a medical plastic glove with water and put it in the freezer. When you serve the punch take the frozen ice out of the glove (its shaped as a hand) and put it in the punch. Hope this helps.

Sorry didn't see the kool-aid part. Do you have any type of powdered fruit drink mixes? If not do you have dark grape juice and cranberry juice? Maybe use the juices with a clear soda?

Johnor if you can get any type of grape and a orange powder drink mix...mix it together and it will make a black punch. If it's not already sweetened add sugar. Then you could also consider this idea as well. Wash a disposable (rubber like) glove, add water, tie the end with a rubber band and freeze until hard. Remove the glove carefully using scissors. Add to punch for a floating hand effect...

Ok here are some others I found online....Had to laugh I didn't realise CSA also mentioned the rubber glove too...oops! It is pretty cool thou if you have never tried it. Anyhow....

Place the strawberries in a food processor. Add thawed lemonade and process until smooth. Pour into a punchbowl, add the ginger ale and blend well together.
Place some of the gummy worms in the punch and put the rest around the top of the punch bowl. Serve with a gummy worm over the side of the cup!
