Recipe Corner: Breezy Berry Party Punch

I was recently asked by a reader for a "blue" shower recipe for a friend's shower to welcome her new baby boy. With the holiday season coming along with  family and friend gatherings to celebrate special life milestones, this makes a tasty and special punch to serve.
