This tasted quite strange to the adults at the party, but the kids loved it and that's who it's for, right? LOL It also had an awesome bubbly effect when the ginger ale was added so that was cool for Halloween too. Thanks for the recipe!

As a person who doesn't really like punch, I was skeptical of any punch recipe. But I came across this one and decided to fix it for my guests at a Halloween party. I made it exactly as the recipe calls for and spiked it with some rum and it was *incredible*! I was very impressed, and will make this again for Halloween or an Over-The-Hill party!

Lots of fun! I couldn't find grape or orange koolaid, so I used black cherry and tangerine. The color wasn't black, so I added a drop of green food coloring to do the trick. Kids loved it, so did the grownups! The floating hand was the best :)

Way too sweet!!! I doubled the recipe for a big office party, but instead of using 4 cups of sugar I only used 3 thinking that would be just right, blah! My 12 year old even thought it was too sweet! I added about another quart of water and it tasted a little better. The hand of ice, while cool looking, was more of a hassle to deal with and I made two and lost fingers on both, but that made it kind of cool with floating fingers.

I've found a great way to keep it cold, therefore keeping the hand(s) from melting so fast. First off, I made this for my son's 4th grade class of 36 students today so I tripled the recipe (thus having 9 quarts of Kool-Aid). There are 4 quarts in a gallon, so I put the Kool-Aid mixture into two,cleaned gallon milk containers. This was made the day before, so I kept the containers in the fridge. That left 1 quart left over, which I put in a ziplock and froze overnight. The ginger ale was kept in the fridge in their unopened containers. The next day, I took it all to school and combined everything in the classroom into one of those big, plastic tubs (like the kind you bob for apples in). The quart of punch that was frozen helped keep it all cool, without diluting the flavor. Due to my punch being cold and refreshing, my "hands" did not melt until much later. The kids were afraid to try it at first until their teacher tried it (loved it!) and described it as a "melted otter pop." Only one child disliked it after that.

We LOVED this punch. I put dry ice in the big bowl below the punch bowl, and I also put dry ice into the punch bowl itself. It had fog coming out all over the place. I also put gummy worms in the ice cubes which the children loved. Highly recommend this awesome recipe!

This punch was great! I reduced the amount of sugar so it wouldn't be quite so sweet. It was a huge hit! Kids loved it as did the parents. We'll certainly make it again next year.

This punch was easy to make and very creepy. After reading the reviews, I found an opaque bowl to put it in so it would look pretty dark. And I only added half the sugar called for, and it was plenty sweet. The frozen hand looked really cool especially because I put red food coloring in when I froze it. I chilled the punch first and the hand lasted for about an hour before the fingers melted off. Not too many people drank the punch, but those that did said it was pretty good. Even though I had alot left over, it was worth doing because it looked cool.

Instead of using water for the hand, make either red or green based Kool Aid and fill the glove. This way your hand is spooky colored rather than clear.

I made this for a Halloween party for kids. It wasn't black, more like dark brown. But it was very tasty! It was enjoyed by both adults and children. I would make it again.

While the idea of this is great, the taste isn't as important as the way it looks. Unfortunately, the hands melt really quickly, so not everyone sees how cool this looks. I made it for an office party. If I made it again, for a non office party I might just spike it with something.

i made this at a Halloween party this past Saturday and it didn’t go over as well as I hoped for. The kids enjoyed it, but the adults didn’t really care for the sweetness. If I make this again, I will cut down on the sugar a bit…2 cups was too much in my option. But it was good. Thanks!
