SPARKLING PARTY PUNCH (NON-ALCOHOLIC)

Steps:

• In the morning of your party, in a very large bowl, combine all ingredients except ginger ale; you may want to then pour this mixture into juice jugs to refrigerate to avoid any spills.
• When ready to serve, place 7 cups of the punch mix in punch bowl along with 2 cups of the ginger ale; float a Citrus Ice Ring (recipe posted separately #24758) in the bowl; this allows you to refill (refresh) the punch bowl two more times without it getting too watered down as the ice ring melts.
