Caribbean Rum Punch
This delicious concoction is the traditional rum punch recipe used in the West Indies, passed down for years. The old rhyme goes, 'One of sour, two of sweet, three of strong, four of weak.' Any fruit juice can be used. Serve chilled over ice, with fruit garnishes and a sprinkling of grated nutmeg.
Watermelon Cucumber Salad
This watermelon cucumber salad with creamy feta cheese and crunchy red onion is so refreshing. I make it for all of my summer picnics and it's always a huge hit!
7 UP Cake
This 7UP cake is my favorite recipe. My grandmother and mother used to make this when I was a child. It is absolutely wonderful! You can substitute 7UP for milk in the glaze.
