RUM PUNCH WITH MELON BALLS
This lovely looking and tasting punch just screams summer. Get the gang together, fire up the grill to throw something on and serve the punch for a great afternoon/evening. Recipe originally from http://www.marthastewart.com. my change was to use key limes as they taste better.
