Source: Better Homes and Gardens
Ingredients
5 cups cut-up rhubarb
1 1-inch piece ginger, thinly sliced
2/3 cup sugar
2 6-ounce cans or one 12-ounce can frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
1 6-ounce can frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
1 1-liter bottle ginger ale, chilled
Directions
1. In a large saucepan combine rhubarb, ginger, and 1 cup water. Bring to
boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool
slightly. Pour mixture into a fine mesh sieve set over a bowl. Strain rhubarb
mixture, pressing rhubarb gently to get out as much liquid as you can. Discard
pulp. Return the strained liquid to saucepan; add sugar. Cook and stir until
sugar is dissolved. Cover and chill, if desired.
2. Just before serving, stir the orange juice and lemonade concentrates into
rhubarb liquid. Transfer to a large punch bowl. Add 4 cups water. Gradually pour
ginger ale down sides of punch bowl. Serve over ice. Makes 14 (6-ounce)
servings.
