| My old lady (yes we are getting along again, thanks for asking Zaphod) is a LCDR at the Pentagon (intel) and is giving a retirement event at lunch for on of the 05's at the office. Anybody have any good SAFE FOR WORK (think post tailhook Navy) punch ideas? |

No Doc. The only punch recipe I have is the one we used for all of our Hail & Farewells. You can omit the booze if you want...but I'm not sure how it will taste. Anyway...BIG punchbowl required: -Couple of big bottles of 7-up -Large can of pinapple juice -Can of pinapple chunks -Couple of packages of frozen strawberrys (Recommend you thaw them first.  ) and the juice.-One or two bottles of Champaigne -1/2 bottle of 151 Rum (About a pint) -Fill with ice and stir! This recipe is a sneaky one...the girls love the wimpy, sweet taste then all of a sudden the booze catches up with them!  Anyway...good luck! |
