Boys rule in the Sosa home and it&#8217;s ever more apparent when it comes to talk of sports; basketball being a favorite between my son and step-son, Collin and Aiden. Never one to pass up a good theme (can we all just agree that I&#8217;m theme-crazy at this point?), for the upcoming madness of basketball finals, I created a colorful punch featuring <a target=\"_self\" href=\"http:\/\/cbi.as\/47-x\" rel=\"nofollow\">fruity Skittles<\/a> and lemon-lime pop that my kids slurped down in a frenzy.<\/p>\n<p>The brainstorm for this punch all started when I discovered the palate of rainbow candy <a target=\"_self\" href=\"http:\/\/cbi.as\/48by\" rel=\"nofollow\">Skittles<\/a> in Sam&#8217;s Club in a giant 54 ounce bag. Am I the only one who gets sucked into the Sam&#8217;s Club snack aisle vortex only to come out $100 poorer? Am I also the only one who ends up ripping open a bag of said Skittles to appease a very vocal, very angry toddler before we actually make it to the checkout line? It&#8217;s only madness, if you don&#8217;t have Skittles.<\/p>\n<p>This Taste the Rainbow Skittles Punch recipe is simple, tasty, and fun to look at! It&#8217;s also easily customized to your team&#8217;s favorite colors if you&#8217;d prefer to show your team pride. I just went with a classic Skittles rainbow, singing the chant I learned from one of Evelyn&#8217;s TV shows all the while. <em>Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, don&#8217;t forget there&#8217;s purple too<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>To create this recipe for your Tourney events, you&#8217;ll start by pouring some fruit punch into an ice tray. Then you&#8217;ll add Skittles, separating them by color. Freeze then until the cubes are solid.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/skittles-punch1.png\" alt=\"skittles punch1\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/skittles-punch2.png\" alt=\"skittles punch2\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>Once your cubes are frozen through, pop them out and place them in a big bowl or individual cups.
