I need a large quantity punch idea non-alcoholic for tomorrow

[kayEx]

Classic and not so classic any and all ideas welcome really. Maybe an interesting punched up lemonade. Unfortunately for me friends and family are not drinkers so the main beverages have to be unspiked. I have one beverage dispenser that holds about 3 gallons so one easy to make large quantity recipe will be really great. I will just tote my own party in a flask.

How about Arnold Palmer - half iced tea, half lemonade.

Probably too late for you, but here is another thread with punch suggestions. The Pacific Sparkler Punch I recommended is very very good for a crowd.

Gallon jugs of the Tampico brand fruit juices from the megamart, combined with Ginger Ale, crushed ice and fruit cocktail for a non-alcoholic Sangria...

I know it's too late for your event, but I'm sure others will come across this post looking for punch. Talk about a time capsule, but the old stand-by for church receptions when I was growing up was really simple -- pink lemonade (made with the frozen concentrate), a package of frozen strawberries, and a bottle of ginger aie. It was different enough not to be "just" lemonade, but simple and kid-friendly. For "fancy" occasions, freeze some lemonade in a ring mold with strawberries in there. Then float the ring in the bowl. I always liked that better than melting sherbet in punch.

At my bridal shower, we had several pregnant ladies... we made lovely virgin sangrias:

cut up fruit (cherries, raspbeeries, peaches, apricots, grapes, etc...)
cranberry juice
orange juice concentrate
sparkling water

can't remember the proportions but taste & adjust
