This is an excellent punch. Still haven't found an easy way to crush it up after adding the ginger ale though. We had this punch for a party and those who opted to could add different flavors of vodka. This was extremely good with the Vanilla and Blue Raspberry Vodkas.

We made this for my baby shower and the guests guzzled the heck out of it. I guess that means it's good!

Excellent punch! The only thing I'd change is adding a bit less pineapple juice; it was slightly overpowering. I had to make punch for a fundraiser with over 80 guests and this recipe really came through for me. I stored the gelatin mixture in large zip-lock bags and let them freeze overnight. Because I had so many of them, by the time the fundraiser came around they were still only slush! But that worked for the better, because the slush incorporated into the gingerale a lot better than a big icy block would. I'll definitely use this recipe for all my punch needs!

I served this punch for my daughter's birthday party. People really enjoyed it. It was gone by the end of the party. I also cut the sugar in half and it tasted just fine. It was a very nice change.

This punch is wonderful!!! I used strawberry jello for my daughter's baby shower. I made it as shown using 3 gallon size freezer bags. Be sure to take bags out of the freezer at least 3 hours before adding the ginger ale in the punch bowl! Everyone loved it and several asked for the recipe.

May try it next time without freezing juice. It was more like a slush for the first hour or so.

The texture was great but it took awhile to achieve it. Allow at least an hour for the Ale to melt the frozen pieces. I would freeze all of it in ice cube trays instead of big chunks.

I thought it was good..not great. Everybody else seemed to love it and mentioned adding some alcohol to kick it up a bit (but we were at a school meeting!)

I made this punch for my son's 8th birthday party and it was a big hit!! I chose this recipe because my kids do not like the flavor of kool-aid or fruit punch. You can customize this punch with the jello. I chose 2 strawberries and 1 cranberry. Like other reviewers I also reduced the sugar to 2 cups and it was still quite sweet. I divided the punch into 3(gallon size) freezer bags on a Thursday night. Saturday morning I placed them on the counter around 1100 for a 4pm party and once the ginger ale was added,it was perfect. My 15 year old son said the punch was addicting and the sodas went untouched. My sister requested the recipe for her son's 18th birthday party next week!

I made this for a baby shower and everyone liked it a lot! i used less sugar as others have suggested and i think i can use even less sugar next time. and like some other have mentioned, the gallon bags take a long time to thaw, so i think i willuse quart ziploc bags only next time. my friend has already requested that i made this during her bridal shower again!

I made this at my nieces bridal shower, never made punch in my life and it was a hit! everyone loved it. I did cut the sugar.. for 150 people it called for 15 cups and I only used 6 cups. And it was just so perfect! I do advise you do this,I noticed alot of people cut the sugar because if not it is "too" sweet. On the jello jelatin I used 9 boxes of mixed fruit flavor and 2 boxes of cherry.

Too sweet for my liking. But a group of teenagers loved it! I cut the recipe down by 2 cups of sugar...still sweet enough to give you a tooth ache!

THIS IS THE BOMB!! Everyone loved it at a baby shower at my house. They kept asking for the recipe!! I would make this again and again!! It smelled weird mixing the pineapple juice with the lemon concentrate....but it is EXCELLENT - no weird smell after freezing. I USED ONLY 2 CUPS of sugar and it was perfect. I used raspberry jello mix. People drank it so fast it seemed I had more frozen stuff than gingerale - you could easily use 3 bottles of gingerale to the same amount of frozen stuff - in fact I added about 6 cans of Siera Mist to the remaining frozen stuff and it was fine.... MAKE IT!! YOUR GUESTS WILL LOVE IT AND THINK YOU ARE THE HOSTESS WITH THE MOSTEST!! I froze the frozen stuff in 4 separate dishes and chiseled it apart and then it gets nice a slushy! Make it ya'll!!

This punch was amazing! It was my first time making punch and it was a real hit, everyone was wanting more and more! I had to convert some of the measurments so I could understand them better; I used 2 (1L) cartons of Dole Pinapple Juice, and 1 can of frozen Minute Maid Lemon concentrate. It worked out perfect! Thanks!

Very good punch. I used it for my son's ninth birthday party. I used ice cube trays to freeze it! It took quite a few trays but worked out perfectly. I used two packets of raspberry jello and cut back on the sugar and lemon juice a little bit and it was wonderful!

So delicious! I made this for a house party with over 50 people and it disappeared shortly after I put it out! The kids had a blast helping me break up the frozen juice, and it had a great slushy consistency. I'm definitely going to use this as my go-to punch recipe from now on.
