Since you’re already taking a couple of days to make punch, might as well make fancy ice. Try freezing water in balloons. Run the frozen ovals under cold water until they just fit inside your glasses.
This Frozen Garibaldi recipe transforms frozen orange juice concentrate and Campari into a slushy cocktail worthy of a fancy summer brunch or hot afternoon by the pool.
If you like the smoky notes of mezcal, substitute half the tequila with it instead. To scale up, increase the drink ingredients only—you'll have enough ice cubes for several cocktails.

In this inaugeral episode of 'It's Alive' with Bon Appétit test kitchen manager Brad Leone, we follow him through his process of brewing his own kombucha. Main takeaways include: be creative, keep your SCOBY clean, take care of her, feed her, and use food-grade bottles to avoid glass explosions. It's a learning experience.
Update: Brad now uses a concentrated formula that doesn't require ice. He mixes 2 quarts of water with sugar and tea. Then dilutes it with room-temperature water.
