Frozen Fruit Cocktail

3 ½ cups sugar
2 quarts water
6 oz. Frozen orange juice concentrate
6 oz. Frozen lemonade concentrate
1 Watermelon, cut with melon baller
2 Cantaloupes, cut in chunks
2 Green honey dew melons, cut in chunks
3 lbs. Green grapes
3 lbs. Peaches, diced
1 lb. Blueberries, fresh or frozen

In large saucepan, bring sugar and water to boil; stir in the frozen juices and remove from heat.

In large bowl, combine all fruit. Put mixed fruit in freezer bags or containers, leaving ½ inch space on top. Pour hot syrup over top.

Seal and freeze. Use within 6-8 months. Makes about 12 pints.

To serve, thaw partially. Divide into salad bowls and top with Sprite, ginger ale or club soda. You want to eat it when it’s slushy but not completely thawed.
