FOOD FUN: Fish Bowl Or Shark Tank Punch

Fish Bowl Punch

Gummy Sharks
[1] Sip the punch, eat the fish (photo and recipe courtesy CocktailsDetails.com). [2] Prefer to swim with the sharks? Use shark gummies instead. Or make a statement by using four fish and one shark (photo courtesy Amazon.com).

 

Last summer we presented Pool Party Punch, a cocktail as blue as a swimming pool.

This year, it’s Fishbowl Punch from CocktailDetails.com, with our own variation, Shark Tank Punch.

You can also make a non-alcoholic punch (recipe below).
