Excellent and easy to make. I don't normally like cranberry juice, but I gave it a shot and it turned out good - more sweet than tart.

Delish! Served in sugar rimmed glasses and added the cherry juice to each glass individually to top it off - layered look is beautiful!

I doubled the recipe to begin with, and then I had to make another double batch because my guests loved it so much!

Not bad, but not what I expected either. I think there is too much ginger ale for my liking.

Pretty good. Would make again. In blender it creates a lot of foam from the gingerale, but it is still tasty.

Very good! I made this for dinner when our pregnant friend was coming over and we wanted to serve something more interesting than just soda. I doubled the recipe and the four of us drank it all over the course of the evening! I didn't add the cherry juice, but followed the rest if the recipe exactly. I don't know how people got caramel brown, my punch was that pretty pink color. Maybe you added too much OJ? I used the no-pulp stuff and it worked well. Thanks!

This was so refreshing. Tastes great as a mix with vodka or gin.

We loved this punch, and I can't wait to make it again. It's not overly sweet and is very refreshing. I poured the cherries with the juice into the punch, and used Fresca instead of ginger ale. Thanks for the great recipe!!

This is a great drink! Very refreshing. Mine was a pinkish red color as well. As for the previous reviewers that thought it was too sweet, I served over ice cubes and that seemed to help dilute it. Thanks.

Not sure how some people were getting a brownish color with this drink. Mine came out a beautiful reddish pink. Our family enjoyed this punch for New Year's Eve. We don't do alcohol so this was a festive and tasty substitute. It is pretty sweet though. Also, the recipe as posted doesn't make a whole lot, so to get 10 servings, I doubled the recipe, which filled my punch bowl about half-full.

COLOR!!! the taste is OK -- nothing memerable --- but the color throws me for a loop. It looks like a big bowl of melted carmel, or thick apple cider. Not very appetizing to the eye, but a pleasant taste in spite of it. I would try a different punch next time to see if it looks better. Remember, you first eat (or in this case drink) with your eyes.

I enjoyed this punch over the Thanksgiving holidays. I didn't mix the ginger ale with it, because I was the only one drinking it. Instead, I mixed all the juices and kept in a container in the fridge. When I wanted some Cran-Dandy Cooler, I would fill the glass half full with the juice mixture, then add ginger ale and ice. Worked perfectly. My only qualm was the color of it - it was sort of a thick brownish color - which I didn't think looked very appetizing. But it tasted great, and I will make it again. Thanks Bea!

Most people at the party seemed to like the punch but a lot was left over. I don't know if pineapple juice AND orange is necessary, there's a lot of flavors going on. It is refreshing and tasty though.
