Just right! Served this for 100 guests at my daughter's high school baccalaureate. I too did not add the sugar. YUM. YUM.

Loved this punch. Made a double batch for my daughter's communion and it was all gone. Should have made triple! Very light and refreshing.

This was such an easy punch to make and it tasted great. I made this for my sister's Baby Shower and everyone asked for the recipe! :)

Very good & refreshing! Great punch for a hot day. The only change I made was that I didn't like the idea of adding sugar to the mixture. So instead I used half 7up & half club soda for the "carbonated water". Will definitely make again.

I'm really not sure about this one. I thought it had an odd taste. I made 60 servings for 25 people and there was a little left (not a lot). Most people at the baby shower went back for seconds or more and several people commented on how much they liked it but I didn't like it a lot. I don't think I'd make this again but I do like the alternative to a heavy fruity or sherberty punch. I used rasberry lemonade (minute maid) to make it pink so I "might" try it again with regular lemonade.

I made this for a baby shower. It was a huge hit and so easy to make. I did a double recipe for a group of 25. Thanks for a great non-alcoholic punch!

Delicious! I used pink lemonaid instead for a girl's baby shower. I did not float the fruit in the bowl, instead I froze lemons and oranges into my ice ring, and it turned out great! Everyone LOVED it. One note -- the sparkling cider is a little difficult to find. I usually buy Martinelli's brand, but it turns out, places like Walmart only carry it during Christmas and New Years.

After reading the reviews for this punch, I decided to try it for my dinner party last week. The punch turned out great!! (the only thing I did differently was add more sugar). Even though apple cider is used, the punch tastes like a marriage of ice tea and lemonade-very good. I had about 15 people over so I made punch for 40 servings and it wasn't enough! If you try this recipes, I would definitely double (maybe even triple) the servings! Kudos to Mathilda!!

Delicious! I served this at a ladies tea yesterday and my friends thought it was quite tasty. I made it with pink lemonade and floated lime slices which was a nice color addition to our tea sandwiches. I've already been asked to bring this to a baby shower!

Tastes great and was a big hit at my party! I doubled the recipe amount for 20 guests, but the punch was so popular that it ran out very fast, so I recommend making more than the amount stated in the recipe.

Wonderful hit - wouldn't change any of the ingredients except maybe use smaller oranges for appeal. We doubled the receipe except for the fruit - beautiful presentation!

This is the BEST punch recipe ever!!! I made it for a baby shower (2 batches) and it was gone! I'd like to try it sometime with champagne instead of the club soda, for an adult beverage. :)

I've made this recipe for a bridal shower and Christmas dinner and both groups loved it! The only change I made was using about half the cut fruit.

After reading the reviews, I too chose this punch recipe for my daughter's baby shower. It received an overwhelming response. I had double the recipe and we still ran out and the soda bottles were hardly touched. I even forgot the small bit of sugar and it was fantastic!

Wow! I didn't believe the other reviews. Yes, you will need to double this recipe. It is that good. I had people who normally don't drink anything but liquor and wine at my parties actually drinking this instead cause it was that good. There was nothing left and still another hour or two left in the party. This will be a staple at all my parties now. Thanks for a great and easy recipe.

This was a fantastic punch! I was sorry I didn't get more of the ingredients - my guests liked it so much, they drained the punch bowl and wanted more! Highly recommended!
