Love Kool-Aid drinks? Try this punch recipe for your next party and give it a good old kick with some Everclear! I love cocktails and party time all year round and I especially love cocktail and party time during the holidays! I am planning a little New Year’s Eve get-together now that Christmas is over and I was really kind of stuck trying to decide what drinks to serve. I had red and white wine for the wine-loving guests and some basic mixers for high ball drinks, but I wanted something unique that I could also use as a centerpiece for the bar area and my best friend sent me this wonderfully inventive fruit cocktail recipe called the hilarious name of Blue Kool-Aid Jungle Juice Party Punch by her favorite Youtuber, The Tipsy Bartender. I immediately fell in love with this awesome cocktail idea and knew I had to make it. I first went to the local HEB Grocery Store and got the biggest, most succulent blood oranges, apples, grapefruit, and cranberries I could find. Then I brought them home, plopped it on the counter and started cutting them all up to float them in my big bowl of Blue Kool-Aid Jungle Juice. I poured all my fruit into a big glass bowl then added 3 packs of Blue Rasberry Kool-Aid.
Then I added 3/4 cups Tequila, 1 cup Rum, 1/2 cup Everclear, 2 liters of lemonade, and 2 liters of lemon-lime soda.
This punch is so delicious, it makes me think of the Hank Wiliams Jr. song, “All My Rowdy Friends are comin’ over tonight” We gonna get rowdy y’all! Lol
