Slime Punch

Intended for Halloween, but yummy all of the time:

1 pkg Lemon-lime Koolaid
1 cup sugar
8 cups water
1 can frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
4 cups ginger ale (or sprite)
3 scoops orange sherbert

Empty Koolaid into punch bowl.
Add sugar and water.
Stir until dissolved.
Stir in the orange juice.
Right before serving, add the ginger ale and float scoops of sherbet on top.
The punch will be green and slimy looking.
