I forgot to mention that you put the container of liquid in the freezer for it to turn into slush.

You should never drink enough that it effects you and if you don't, why bother!

A lovely Temperence Beverage-

"Veranda Punch"

Juice of 3 lemons (good 1/2-3/4 cup)
Juice of 3 oranges (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup simple (sugar) syrup
1 cup brewed tea (I use Red Rose Decaf)
1 pint ginger ale (can and a half- chilled)
1 pint sparkling water (chilled)

Mix juices and syrup, add the hot tea. Let cool to room temperature.

Add the chilled ginger ale and sparkling water.

Serves 8-12 in punch cups.

Easily doubled, tripled, quadrupled.

This is from a funny old cookbook an aunt of mine had. The punch is surprisingly good. Plus, the name (theirs, not mine, is a hoot!).

Thanks for telling me who the quote was from. I remembered reading it in a book and thinking it was funny.
