Thirsty Thursday: Super Easy Rum Punch

 We like to have a signature drink at our Tipsy Terrier Pub parties in addition to draft beer, sangria, soft drinks etc.  I made a version of this for our Woodstock Party and called it Purple Haze because it had Grape and Hawaiian Punch Kool Aid.  For our Halloween party this weekend I will be making a Vampire Punch using Cherry Kool Aid.

Easiest Party Punch by amynicoleruffo on Polyvore

This recipe is made specifically for a 3 gallon beverage dispenser

Ingredients
1.75 liter bottle of rum (Kirkland spiced rum was around $16 and tasted like Captain Morgans)
6 liters of Sprite, chilled if you have the fridge space
3 packets of unsweetened Kool Aid - choose your favorite flavor
sugar optional

1. Add ice to the base if there is a reservoir.  If not, no problem.  I put an ice bucket next to the punch so guest can add ice to their cup - and the punch does not get watered down.
2. Pour in bottle of rum.
3. Add packets of Kool Aid
4. Pour in all the Sprite.
5. Stir and taste if you need sugar.

I made two batches of this for the last party, one with added sugar one with none.  People seemed to like it better without sugar but that could be because it was the second batch and people were feeling pretty groovy : )  This is so simple because there is no measuring and easy to make a second one mid party.

Cheers,

Amy
