Great punch, don’t like the fizz with the pineapple juice though, much better taste the next day when the soda went flat.

I served this punch at my daughters wedding shower yesterday. It was huge hit!!! I loved it! The reviews are correct, it’s not overly sweet like so many punch recipes are! It was just perfect! Thank you for this great recipe!
Lisa Winters
Love this recipe and the ease of ingredients. I also like the way to change the calculator for servings. I substituted the lemon-lime pop with Fresca

I’ve made this for dozens of relatives and friends and it’s always been a hit! I’ve been asked about it every time and despite wanting to claim it for my own, I can’t help but give credit to the mysterious Aileen. Just a well-balanced drink with just the right amount of fruity sweet, lightly carbonated tang that holds up well, even when it’s been mixed with ice for a few hours.

Was looking for a punch that had a lot of juice in it for my daughter’s birthday party. She absolutely loves juice and this was a big hit with her. We couldn’t find apricot nectar so I used 46oz of V8 Peach Mango juice instead. We added a little sugar to make it less bitter but other than that we all loved this. The peach mango was perfect with this and I’d recommend it for a supplement if you can’t find the apricot.

Very good punch that was well received at my party by adults and kids alike. Instead of apricot nectar, I pureed lite canned apricots (only apricots, water and sugar in the ingredients list) in the blender before the party. I reserved the puree in the fridge until it was time to make the punch, which kept the preparation quick. I also provided a bottle of vodka and a bottle of cherry amaretto on the side, and the adults enjoyed spiking their drinks.

Scaled this down for 4 people and it Was a huge hit. Guests kept going back for more. Couldn’t find apricot though so I had to use peach.
Sharon Matthews
I have made this punch for both my daughter’s and daughter-in-law’s showers. Huge success. Apricot nectar gives it a different, smooth flavor. Mixes well with champagne.
Keith Soto
I thought the punch was on the bitter side. I altered it by adding some orange juice, less apricot nectar, and using lemonade instead of the limeade concentrate. This made for a smoother punch.
Brian Lawrence
This was all gone at the end of my pool party. I didn’t get to taste it, but I’m giving it 5 stars based on not one single drop being left!
Christopher Rogers
I made this for a baby shower using mango instead of apricot juice. People seemed to like it, I did not have any left.

I recently made this recipe for a banquet, and everyone loved it. We had about 140 people, and I made 6 batches. I would do 7 next time.
Christina Baird
We used this punch for our wedding reception. It was super simple to mix up and tasted great! We pre-mixed and refrigerated everything but the soda in gallon jugs to make it easy for the servers. We also added slices of lemon and orange to make it look fancy.

I have been using this recipe for over 25 years – the way I was introduced to it was the juices & limeade were in a frozen state (already mixed together) – brought out to partially thaw b-4 the party & when it was ready to serve the 7-up was poured over it & was a slushy drink. FABULOUS!!! Of course we spiked it with vodka to get the party started!! 🙂

PUNCH is a KNOCKOUT! The recipe was very easy. My co-workers loved it!
Jennifer Anderson
It’s fantastic. I make it at least twice a year for work parties, and my colleagues can’t get enough. I add more Sprite/7-Up to make it last longer and make it less concentrated.
Robert Hale
We served this punch at my parent’s 50th Wedding anniversary party. It was a big hit! I couldn’t find limeade, so I used Bacardi Margarita frozen concentrate instead. I also made an ice ring with lemon, lime and pineapple frozen in it.
Donald Smith
This is great. So refreshing. I used mango nectar instead of the apricot.
Nancy Garza
Good – not a huge pineapple fan, so I wasn’t huge on the taste, but people seemed to like it.
Jennifer Anderson PhD
Made this for a baby shower. Everyone loved it. It was very refreshing. I will definately make it again.
Angela Glover
We liked this punch. I couldn’t find the apricot nectar, so I used mango. I can’t wait to try this with the apricot.
