I tried this punch Sunday at my Church's 100 year celebration and served it for 100 people and everyone loved it. People asked how I got the recipe and several people wanted the recipe. I would give this more stars if offered but there is only 5 stars. Was not able to find the raspberry ginger ale but instead used Jello Brand raspberry and it turned out excellent. You might want to skim off the foam from the jello but that didn't change my mind at all. The red color was perfect since our interior of the church is red. I will definitely be making this very soon. The recipe is a keeper.

I tried this punch as a fluke at my baby shower and I must say, it's the best I've ever tasted. Such a unique flavor! Some guests asked if there was alcohol in it. I guess the mixture of pina colada and bubbly ginger ale gives it a fizzy taste. Will use this recipe again and again.

This punch was a perfect fit for a baby shower that I threw. The punch is slushy w/ a touch of tartness and the perfect amount of sweetness. I didn't have raspberry ginger ale, so I added some raspberry syrup to the punch. Everyone loved the punch, and they wanted the recipe. I will definitely make this again. Thank you for sharing this recipe with us!

I loved this punch!Different from the traditional sherbert punch. Just made it last night for a party, a person that doesn't like coconut, loved it. Will be making for a friend's baby shower. Add some rum to make it more adult orientated also-YUMMY!

Couldn't find the flavored ginger ale so used regular. Turned out very, very good -- everyone at the shower is still ravings about it. I'm sure it would be even better with the raspberry ginger ale!

I made this punch for a social function and now I'm not allowed to bring anything else but this! I couldn't find flavored ginger ale so I used regular and it turned out okay. I also used 2 cans of frozen pina colada mix, and I used the tip about placing the frozen mixture in ziploc bags. It makes it much easier to transport when you have to take it to someone's home. Thanks again for posting this!

This is a wonderful recipe that I made for a bridal shower a few years ago and it is still talked about and requested from friends. It is fast and easy, always a hit, and always requested when I make it. You can put the pina colada and cran-rasberry mixture in a shapped mold with whole raspberries freeze as directed and then float it in your punch bowl with additional berries. You can also add mint leaves for garnish if desired. It is both beautiful and great tasting.

Unfortunately not too many people at my party liked this at all. I wound up throwing most of it out (and it makes A LOT!). I have a sweet tooth that won't quick, but even this was too much for me. Sorry, I tried.

I chose this one for my baby's birthday since it was pink. Froze it in ziploc bags like a reviewer suggested, and it turned out great! Very slushy and addicting. Got lots of requests for the recipe, so I told them where to find it.

Fantastic. I froze the punch in several freezer bags and then was able to "squish" the bags to make it into "slush" before putting in the soda. Very easy and little to no waiting. Used it for a party and everyone LOVED it. Will use this again and again.

AWESOME punch!! It's a big hit whenever I make it. I actually get requests for the punch for different functions. I agree with the other reviews, you MUST start defrosting it at least 1 to 1 1/2 hours prior to the time it will be served. It's still cold, so you won't have to worry about ice.

I would not make this punch again. It is a bit too tart for my taste; I prefer a sweeter punch. I made it as directed--would advise that those wanting to make it allow more than half an hour for defrosting. It presents well and is a pretty pink color, but the flavor is not one I cared for. However, I did receive many rave reviews from my guests--if a tart punch is what you seek, this might be a good recipe for you.
