    found a couple recipes

    Golden Glow Punch

    Here is a party staple we use frequently throughout the year. It is one of our most commonly requested recipes and is always popular. Make ice cubes or an ice ring from some of the pineapple juice and apricot nectar in advance if you want a very cold punch or will be serving the punch on a hot day. Regular ice cubes will dilute the mixture too much.

    46 ounces chilled pineapple juice
    46 ounces chilled apricot nectar
    6 ounces frozen limeade concentrate
    2 liters chilled lemon-lime soda

    Mix together all of the ingredients in a punch bowl, adding the soda right before serving.

    Makes 20 servings.

    Preparation Time: 5 minutes
    Total Time: 5 minutes


    Golden Punch

    2- 20 oz cans crushed pineapples w/ jc 1- 28 oz bottle chilled club soda
    2- 6 oz cans frzn lemonade concentrate 1 tray ice cubes

    In a covered blender at high speed, blend crushed pineapple with it's liquid, 1 can at a time, until thick.
    In a chilled punch bowl, stir in blended pineapple, undilluted lemonade concentrate & sugar.
    Stir in soda, add ice, & serve at once.

    Golden Glow Punch

    ---
    6 (6 oz.) cans frozen orange
    juice concentrate, thawed
    6 (6 oz.) cans frozen lemonade

    Pour half of the concentrates and half of the apple
    juice into each of 2 large punch bowls. Stir half of the
    ginger ale into each bowl. Spoon in sherbet or add ice rings.
    Serve immediately. Makes 150 (1/2 cup) servings.
    ---
    Ice rings: Arrange thin overlapping slices of lime,
    orange and lemon in a ring mold. Pour water into mold to
    partially cover fruit (1/4 inch); freeze. When frozen, add
    more water to fill mold 3/4 full; freeze. Unmold and float
    fruit side up. For a crystal clear ice ring, boil and cool
    water before pouring into mold or use bottled water.. For a more colorful ring, add
    about 1/3 cup cranberries or alternate fruit slices and whole strawberries.

    thank you erniemarie! - i'll show these to my grandmother and see which one she would like the best! I do like the last one that helps you to make the correct amount - I think they expect just about 100 at the reception.
