Notes
Adding Alchohol for an adult drink – I did not add alcohol to our punch, but this would be a great candidate for an adult beverage. Rum would be delicious in this fun drink.

Wow can’t wait to try this but, where can I get these glasses also…
It took me a minute to find them online, but I finally did! They are called Circleware Family Recipe Glasses. I believe I originally bought them at Walmart. They currently have the big Family Recipe Drink dispenser, but no longer have the individual glasses. I’m pretty sure they were discontinuing them when I purchased them. I did however find them on Ebay and on Etsy. Amazon has a colorful version of them. Hope this helps! Happy Glass Hunting. 🙂
Looks yummy! A quick question-is the lemonade drink mix powder like Countrytime complete mix or like Kool-aid packets that is without sugar? Thank you
You’ll want to use the complete mix like Countrytime. Hope you love it! 🙂
