Wacky Witches Brew
Makes 5 quarts. 

A SERIOUS CAUTION: Never touch dry ice; use tongs to handle. 
Only use if serving mature guests,or else if punch can be kept 
out of the way of little hands. This stuff is *very* dangerous. 
But, it definitely adds to the spookiness. 


	4	cups Cranberry juice cocktail
	1	cup chopped candied ginger
	2	large oranges
	12	ounce can thawed frozen apple juice
	6	ounce can thawed frozen limeade
	2	cups seedless grapes
	4	cups water
	2	bottles gingerale (32 ounces each)
	1-2	pounds dry ice

In a 1qt. or 2qt. pan, bring 1 cup of cranberry juice and 
candied ginger to a boil over high heat. 
Boil uncovered, about 2 minutes, then set aside. 

With a vegetable peeler, pare peel from oranges. 
Cut orange peel into thin 2-inch long worms. 
Add orange peel to cranberry mixture. Cover, and chill at 
least four hours or overnight.  

Squeeze the juice from the oranges. Put juice in large, 
heavy bowl. Stir in cranberry-ginger mixture, plus
3 cups of cranberry juice, the apple concentrate, limeade, 
grapes and water. Add ginger ale.

For an extra scare, add a latex glove filled with frozen 
colored water.

***Serve punch from a “steaming” cauldron made magical with 
the smoke of dry ice. You’ll need a large cauldron and a 
chilled bowl that fits inside it (dry ice can cause glass to 
crack, so use bowls made of metal); 

Wearing gloves, use an ice pick to break up the dry ice 
(never touch it with your bare hands); place a few pieces 
in the cauldron. Cover the ice with water, pushing the ice 
under with a long wooden spoon if necessary, and place the 
chilled bowl in the cauldron. Fill the bowl with punch.
