750 mL. Nolet’s Silver Dry Gin
25 L apple cider
2 whole lemons, juiced
Lemon wheels
Green apple wheels

Swamp Sipper Punch
Ingredients:
5 ¼ cups dark rum
1 ¾ cups blue curacao
3 ½ cups pineapple juice
1 ¾ cups lemon juice freshly squeezed
3 ½ cups lemon lime soda
Directions:
Chill all ingredients for several hours or overnight.
Combine the ingredients in a punch bowl and add a block of dry ice to keep the spooky vibe going. Warn guests not to break off or touch ice.
*Another Option: Find a witch’s cauldron or other receptacle that’s larger than your punch bowl, so that you can put the punch bowl into the cauldron. Add dry ice in the space between the cauldron and the punch bowl. Fill the punch bowl with punch and any other garnishes. Instead of the punch smoking, the cauldron will smoke.
