Snowball Punch

I made this punch for a large gathering and it was a hit! The recipe sounds very sweet but the cranberry nectar gives it a slightly tart taste, making it very refreshing. And kids absolutely go crazy for it because of the ice cream on top!


Snowball punch
-----------------
1 (32 oz) bottle cranberry nectar
1 (12 oz) jar seedless raspberry jam
1 1/2 2-Liter bottles lemon-lime soda
1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream


In a punch bowl, combine cranberry nectar and raspberry jam and whisk together until blended. Pour lemon-lime soda into mixture and stir. Place 1/2 of the ice cream in a bowl, soften in microwave for 1 minute on 30% power. Blend softened ice cream into punch and stir well to melt. Using the remaining ice cream and a small ice cream or cookie scooper, place small scoops of ice cream on top of punch. Stir and serve.
