Ghost Hand Punch

Ingredients:
– 1 cup orange juice
– 1/2 cup cranberry juice
– 2 cups ginger ale
– 1/4 cup lemon juice
– 1/4 cup sugar
– 1 pint strawberries, hulled
– 1 cup water
– Plastic glove (latex-free)
– Candy eyeballs (optional)
– Food coloring (green and red)

Instructions:
1. Begin by preparing the ghostly hand-shaped ice cubes. Fill a plastic glove with water and tie the end securely. Place the glove in the freezer and let it freeze overnight.

2. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water with sugar over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool completely.

3. In a large pitcher, pour in the orange juice, cranberry juice, ginger ale, lemon juice, and the prepared sugar syrup. Mix well until all the ingredients are combined.

4. Remove the glove from the freezer. Carefully cut the glove away from the ice hand. Place the icy hand in the punch, letting it float for a spooky effect.

5. To add a touch of Halloween fun, using a toothpick, place candy eyeballs on the hand to create a ghostly face.

6. For an extra eerie touch, add a few drops of green and red food coloring to the punch to give it a haunted look. Stir gently to create a swirling effect.

7. Before serving, hull the strawberries and place them around the rim of the punch bowl for a decorative touch.

8. Serve the Ghost Hand Punch chilled and watch as your guests marvel at the chillingly delightful decoration and enjoy the refreshing taste of the punch.
