This punch is perfect for a spring party. I loved it so much, I created the Rhubarb Punch Cocktail recipe below. 
 
Rhubarb Punch
“Florence made this punch every year for the Hollis Anna Keyes Powers Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (D.A.R.) annual meeting and potluck supper.” Carolyn Gargasz
 
Cook 2 pounds of cut up rhubarb in 5 cups of water until mushy. Press through sieve. Measure juice. To each cup, add 1/3 cup of sugar and stir until dissolved: boil 2 minutes. 
Add, for each cup: 
½ cup orange juice
¼ cup lemon juice
Just before serving, add 1 quart of ginger ale plus ice cubes or an ice ring.

    About this Blog

    Here is a collection of recipes from the community cookbooks of Hollis, NH where I live. 
    ​These endearing books were created by Hollis community groups as fundraisers and sold at various festivals and Old Home Days celebrations. Each book is a collection of tried-and-true family favorites, potluck specialties, and social hour regulars. The recipes provide a peek into a place and a time like a culinary historical record. Ingredient lists, cooking instructions, and recipe themes all tell part of a larger story about the times in which the recipes were created and give a glimpse into the lives of the home cooks who filled the pages with their favorite recipes.
