Want to have some fun this year? Try making your Halloween punch recipe in a pumpkin bowl!
It’s relatively easy and LOTS of fun and keeps things REALLY festive for your party. Plus you can add glow sticks (use military grade glow sticks for best results) and dry ice and make your punch seem like a spooky witches brew. I’m posting the punch recipe below but I’ve also done an Orange Crush Ice cream Sorbet punch recipe that is delicious too.
Ingredients you’ll need for Welch’s Witch Brew:
- 1 Gallon Welch’s 100% Grape Juice
- 4 Cinnamon Sticks
- 1 Tsp Ground Nutmeg
- 1/4 Liter of Ginger Ale
In a medium pot combine Welch’s grape juice, Ginger Ale, Cinnamon sticks and nutmeg. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat. Simmer the mixture until the juice becomes infused with the spices for about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.
Ingredients you’ll need for Spooky Punch:
- 2 bottles of Welch’s sparkling Juice cocktail
- 1 Bottle Welch’s 100% Grape Juice
- 1 Rubber Glove
Start with making your ice hand. Rinse our your rubber glove out then fill up with water, tie off then pop in your freezer. Mix your ingredients together then add the ice hand to keep it chilled.
You can add grapes or gummy worms to the glove when you freeze it to make your spooky punch extra scary. Have fun! ☺
Directions to make a pumpkin punch bowl:
There are a few different things you can do with the punch bowl. If you wanna keep it easy and simple just cut the pumpkin about in half and slip in your bowl. Be sure to use a bowl like you see below with a lip or it may fall into your pumpkin and not sit properly.
Variations to make your punch bowl glow and be spooky:
I used cookie cutters on the pumpkin (see my post about using cookie cutters on pumpkins here) at about 5 inches all the way around the pumpkin. That way you can add dry ice underneath of the punch bowl and add glow stick (seemilitary grade glow sticks here) and you’ll pumpkin punch bowl with have the spooky witches brew effect. It’s really fun and the Welch’s recipe is delicious!!!
