Yes, no alcohol.

1. We don't drink alcohol.

2. It's for the anniversary party and there is no alcohol allowed at the church.

As for the punch, I've seen the sherbet punches. They look.....foamy.

 I'm not following.

Is the clean-up at some place other than the church?

Whatever recipe you use, make an ice ring or disc ahead of time!

Using your recipe, fill a 9" cake pan and freeze it for at least 24 hours. Or use a ring mold. Either way, if you are using fruit in your punch, make sure to put some of it in the bottom of the pan, then fill it with punch & freeze. Do this in several steps, as the fruit may "float" before it freezes.

If you don't have pans or rings, use foam coffee cups to make large cubes of frozen punch. 1) they won't melt as fast as regular ice, and 2) they won't dilute your punch.

Coffee Punch - from the San Antonio Junior Forum

4 cups water 1/4 cup instant coffee granules 3 1/2 cups vanilla or coffee ice cream, softened 1/2 cup whipped cream (can substitute Cool Whip) 1/2 tsp vanilla pinch of salt [1/2 cup Cream de Cacao]
Mix all ingredients, and serve cold in a chilled punch bowl.

The original recipe calls for Cream de Cacao, or Amaretto or Kahlua, but since you don't serve alcohol, just omit it.

Yield:  16 punch cup servings

Watermelon Punch - from the San Antonio Junior Forum

1/2 medium watermelon, cut in half lengthwise 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup water 1/3 cup frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed 1 fifth non-alcoholic white wine, chilled 2 cups small melon balls from watermelon 28 oz ginger ale, chilled

Using the rim of a cup, trace scallops around cut edge of melon. Carve out scalloped edges. With a melon ball, scoop out 2 cups of melon balls; refrigerate. In a saucepan, combine sugar and water; boil for 5 minutes. Remove from heat; add lemonade and wine. Chill 2 hours. To steady melon on serving platter, cut a thin sliver from the bottom of the melon. Pour chilled lemonade mix into melon half. Add reserved melon balls. Carefully add ginger ale. Serve in champagne* glasses. Yield 2 quarts.
* Most Dollar Tree stores have inexpensive plastic champagne glasses, usually 12-packs.

Check the allrecipes site and search under non-alcoholic punch. There's like 50 different kinds and they all sound delicious. You could make more than one kind.

Thanks ya'll.

I use to have one with cherry or strawberry, can't remember which, pineapple and something else with ginger ale.

But I can't find it.

I made "Jiggle Juice" the other day with a gallon of lemonade mixed with orange concentrate and sliced oranges. It was good.

I am drinking this right now and it is summer time delicious! More of a punch than a tea to be honest, so you really should try it. Basically it is half tea and half lemonade. If you need to follow a recipe, then here it is.

All my punch recipes call for alcohol. But I always do the ring ice mold bit, too. Especially adding fruit. It really makes it look festive.
