18 Reviews of Blue Baby Shower Punch

From: Chef #313172

On Apr 23, 2006

I made this for a baby shower. The first batch, I followed the recipe to the t. It tasted good, but was a tad too sweet, and the ice cream sort of "curdled" on top. For the second batch, I omitted the sugar for the kool aid and did not add any more ice cream. I would make it again, but next time I will use sherbert.

    This was such a cute idea for a baby shower and delicious too. I made as written except I used pineapple sherbet instead of ice cream for the rubber duckies to swim in. It was a huge hit! We put blue lights wrapped in tulle around the punchbowl and it was just beautiful! Thanks for the perfect recipe!

    Perfect for the baby shower I just hosted! It was a hit and everyone wanted the recipe. I used pineapple sherbert rather than ice cream. Also would recommend not making large batches at a time because the kool aid/sugar/sherbert or ice cream starts to almost gel after awhile. BUT....PERFECT for a little boys shower!

    I made this punch for a baby shower this weekend, it was a Big Hit! I used the Malibu Pina Colada Mix in the bottle and made an ice ring and ice cubes out of the Kool-Aid mixture. I also omitted the ice cream. Thank you for this recipe...it really came in handy. It was very easy to put together.

    Made this for my nieces baby shower this past weekend. It made the prettiest baby blue color and the vanilla icecream was such a nice touch. Made it with Berry Blue. Tasted pretty darn good too! Thanks Julesong!

    I made this for a baby shower that I hosted last week. It was a hit!! There were roughly 20 guests at the shower and we went through a double batch! I substituted pineapple sherbet for the ice cream and found lighted rubber duckies to float in the bowl. It was a hit!!! Thaks a bunch for the recipe.

    All the guests loved this!! It was so neat looking! Pretty easy to put together and tasted great! Definitely would recommend this to anyone for a neat addition to the serving table at any baby shower! (We did float the duckies in it.)

    This was SO neat! Lots of compliments! 1) Rubber ducks floating in the top are a must. 2) The ice cream is a must — just use less. I was uncertain about adding the ice cream because of other reviews. I added about 8 large scoops of vanilla ice cream. I am so glad I did! They frothed and bubbled up to make it look like the duckies were floating in a bubble bath. I thought that was so cool, and so did all the baby shower guests. The look lasted for about 45 minutes and then the ice cream did kind of disintegrate and not look as pleasant. It still tasted fine. 3) I did make changes to the recipe. I left out the Pina Colada mix. I made one Kool-aid packet for the punch and froze the other prepared packet in ice cube trays. The full recipe: 1 pitcher Kool-aid, 2 trays of ice cubes (the other two trays can be used later), 1 2-liter of 7-up, 8 large scoops of vanilla ice cream, and 3 small rubber ducks. This served 17 guests.
