Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Party Punch: Bubbling Witches Brew
- add review
- #58039
ingredients
1 bottle (64 ounce size) grape juice
2 bottles (2-liter size) lemon-lime soda or ginger ale
Fun floaters
frozen grapes (eyeballs)
ice cubes
directions
Pour grape juice and soda into bowl or cauldron at party time. Add dry ice when ready to serve.
Ladle quickly into serving cups, but do not put dry ice into individual cups. If the punch is left to fog too long the carbonation will dissipate; also, remember to add more soda or juice if the mixture gets too cold and starts to freeze.
cook's notes
Here's a ghoulishly creepy way to carbonate your drink with those fizzy bubbles that you find in soda -- yes, carbon dioxide from dry ice!

I was a little nervous about the idea of putting the dry ice in the punch. I researched the safety and wanted to report back that it is considered safe. And we tried it and survived :) The punch is fun with floating frozen grapes.
