ICE RING
I saw this on a morning tv show once, and thought it was such a great, simple idea! It keeps the punch icy cold, but doesn't water it down like ice cubes will. The possibilities are endless, as you can add whatever fruit you like, or even rose petals!

HOW TO MAKE AN ICE RING
This is a GREAT way to make an ice ring for you punch, to keep it cold and tasty! By using punch instead of water your punch won't get diluted as it melts. If you want to make ice cubes use ice cube trays or styrofoam egg cartons. The preparation time is time to make each layer, and does not include the time to freeze each layer.

- Freeze each layer before adding the next layer.

- When the ring mold is frozen solid, and ready to put in the punch bowl, sit mold in hot water for 1 minute. This will help to make it come out of the mold easily.
