A punch recipe that was my Mother's. It has a unique flavor due to the almond extract. This punch was served at my wedding in 1956.

I served this recipe to friends at a social gathering with a St. Patricks Day theme. I received many compliments on the taste and the beautiful color of the punch. It was delicious. I did however replace the 4 cups of cold water with 4 cups of ginger ale. Read More

I have made this recipe several times and it disappears quickly. I have never added the almond extract and it is still delicious. I guess I'll add it next time. Read More
