The following is a yummy punch receipe that is rarely if ever refused by guests - men or women. Would have been nice to have for the now past Holidays (sorry about that), but try it for Valentines Day. Cranberry Slush 1 48 oz bottle of cranberry juice 1 qt bottle of gingerale 1 small can frozen lemonade concentrate (thawed) 1 1/2 cups bourbon (or any other of your favorite alcoholic libations) Fresh Mint Leaves or Lime Slices for garnish Mix cranberry juice, gingerale, thawed lemonade concentrate and bourbon in a large plastic container (a large covered tupperware bowl is great!) until well blended. Cover container and put in freezer at least 24 hours before serving. Mixture never fully freezes (due to high alcohol content) but instead turns into a delicious slush. Spoon into a pretty glass, garnish, serve with a spoon and enjoy! I have tried this receipe with rum and vodka but still like the bourbon best! I use Jim Beam, but I imagine you could use any bourbon - a friend tried a Canadian blend and said it was super! Marti Hoffmann ITT DCD-West
