This is such a great recipe that we decided to add it to our Navy wives' club cookbook. We used to freeze the fruit mixture into rings, put the rings into a punch bowl and then pour the ginger ale over the top before serving. Very attractive, especially if you decorate the rings with whole strawberries or blueberries.

This was a hit at a party we had yesterday. I added an 85 g packet of strawberry jello for color. It was a delightful drink for these hot days. I halved the quantity of your recipe for a smaller crowd. It made 2 litres of slush mixture. Didn't have any oranges, so I left it out and used just 1.5 lemons for the half recipe. However I still used 6 bananas, as we prefer a stronger taste of banana. thanks for sharing

Very refreshing on the hot summer days. I halved the recipe with no problem. Thank you for a great slush!
