How to Make Banana Punch

  1. In a saucepan, combine 2 cups of water and 1 cup of sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
  2. Boil for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, then remove from heat and let cool completely.
  3. Prepare frozen orange juice and pineapple juice concentrate according to package directions.
  4. In a large bowl, mash 4 ripe bananas. Add 1 (12-ounce) can of frozen orange juice concentrate, 1 (12-ounce) can of frozen pineapple juice concentrate, and the cooled sugar water. Mix well.
  5. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid.
  6. Let the frozen punch thaw for 2-3 hours before serving. This allows it to reach the perfect slushy consistency.
  7. Just before serving, gently stir in 2 liters of 7 Up. Don't overmix; you want to retain some slushiness.
  8. Serve immediately while still slightly slushy.
  9. Enjoy your delicious and refreshing Banana Punch!
