Steps:

• Mix all together in a 1 gallon freezable container or ice cream bucket and freeze until slushy.

• Garnish with lemons, limes and oranges (or any other fruit you prefer).
• Try putting half the slush into the punch bowl and add one bottle of pop to test your alcohol/mix taste requirements.
• AS a warning, it does not have a strong alcohol taste!
• I prefer using the scoop in the glass method to making it in a punch bowl because like all punches with pop, the pop eventually goes flat.
• This stays in the freezer well and if your guests don't guzzle it all (fat chance on that one!), you can easily serve it again in the near future.
• Enjoy!
