Bennett’s Berry Blue Colada

Blue Colada PunchWe had a baby shower for Jessica and her soon-to-arrive baby boy.  In keeping with the gender, she found a recipe for this yummy blue punch.  I was a little skeptical because I couldn’t imagine a blue drink appealing to anyone over the age of 11, but I was wrong. … AND … No one was more surprised than I at how tasty this stuff is.  

The natural flavors from the Pina Colada mix really soften the artificial Kool-Aid flavor, and, I must say, the two complement each other better than I imagined.  It’s a delicious beverage that just happens to be a fun color.  

This is now my go-to recipe for all my blue drink needs. 😉
