This is my favorite for showers, golden anniversaries, weddings, teas, etc. I have also substituted cranberry juice for the grapefruit juice for a pretty pinkish color.

GOLDEN FRUIT PUNCH

1 (12 oz) can orange juice concentrate
1 (12 oz) can lemonade concentrate
1 (46 oz) can unsweetened pineapple juice
1 quart apricot nectar
2 cups unsweetened grapefruit juice
2/3 cups sugar
1 (2 ltr.or 67.6oz) bottl gingerale or lemon/lime soda
Orange and lemon slices for garnish

Combine fruit juices (with the appropriate cans of water) and sugar in large container. (And I do mean LARGE container) Stir until sugar dissolves. Chill. To serve place in punch bowl and add gingerale/soda and ice ring, which has been made from the punch mixture.

YIELD: 2-gal of base punch

*Note--I find it easier to mix up each fruit concentrate separately in a pitcher and pour half of each mixture into two gallon milk containers. This makes mixing, handling, and pouring much easier. Also sugar mixture may be mixed separately using a little of the water to make a simple syrup first.
