ice cubes

1. In a punch bowl combine thawed concentrates. Add 4 cups cold water; stir to combine.

2. Gently add grape juice, but do not stir. Serve immediately over ice. If desired, garnish with strawberries and orange wedges.

Serves 12

Grown-Up Option: May use champagne in place of sparkling white grape juice.
