Before I saw that you had fruit punch on the menu, I thought of Trader Vic's Queen Charlotte Fruit Punch. Recipe is from the book, Trader Vic's Tiki Party: 3 c orange juice 1 1/2 c pineapple juice 1 1/2 c lemon juice 1 1/2 c passion fruit syrup 3/4 c grenadine 6 c sparkling water 6 c ice cubes Combine everything but sparkling water in a 2-gallon punch bowl. Add sparkling water and ice, and stir gently. As for other ideas for food and decorations, let me pull out my midcentury booklet, How You Can Give Hawaiian Parties, and see if there's anything interesting there.
