No more diluting your punch with ice. Freeze the punch instead! If you want to dress up this Sparkling Pineapple Slush Punch, add all the ingredients (except the ginger ale) to a gelatin mold, add pineapple chunks and strawberries then freeze. When ready to serve put the frozen ring in a large punch bowl and pour cold ginger ale over it. Or, make ice cubes and serve each guest their own slush! The gelatin mold is available through Tupperware or on Amazon

THANKS FOR VISITING♥
Can alcohol be added to this recipe? I was thinking of substituting the 16 oz of the ginger ale for Malibu perhaps?
I’m having an aloha spring party and was going to add a little alcohol to it. Suggestions would be great!
I think that’s a great idea Amanda! 🙂
Thanks for asking Amanda. I’m doing a paint n sip beach theme. Making the mango cupcakes too:)
Sounds like a fun party Jennifer. 🙂
Thanks for thinking of nondrinkers
