Each year, the appearance of red kettles and the signature sound of bells ringing herald the arrival of the holiday season. For more than 125 years, the Salvation Army has been giving back through its Red Kettle Campaign. Its efforts now provide assistance to over 4.5 million people in the United States during the holidays, and the tradition has spread all over the world. Once again, Dr Pepper Snapple Group (DPS) is partnering with The Salvation Army to give back to the communities we serve. Through the end of the year, DPS is donating 10 cents to The Salvation Army for every specially marked 7UP, Canada Dry and Squirt 2-liter bottle, 20-oz. bottle and 12-pack sold. If you need an extra incentive to support DPS's Green Bottle Holiday Program, check out the recipes below. Each holiday libation features at least one brand participating in the program, and they're all sure to please at your next family or office gathering —or in the comfort of your own living room. From the DPS family to yours, may your holidays be merry, bright and flavorful! 7UP HOLIDAY PARTY PUNCH

classic recipe has only three ingredients, but don't let that fool you. It (party) punches above its weight and packs a whole lot of holiday "yum." This alcohol-free drink is great for the whole family.

Ingredients

4 liters 7UP 1 quart raspberry sherbet, or any desired sherbet flavor 1 pt. vanilla ice cream

Directions Add everything except for sherbet into a onegallon punch bowl. Float scoops of sherbet on top. Let sherbet soften in the punch for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with mint leaves and raspberries.

Santa's Secret This punch is best served in a stemless glass. HOLIDAY ORANGE SPICE PUNCH Think of this punch as the 7UP Holiday Party Punch's more sophisticated sibling. Don't let that intimidate you though. It's still a fairly simple recipe, and the added ingredients give it a slightly more complex flavor profile with just the right amount of spice.

Ingredients Punch:

1 quart orange sherbet 2 liters 7UP 12 oz. Canada Dry Ginger Ale 6 ounces orange juice

Dr Pepper Snapple Group Newsroom - News The caramel sauce will settle, so stir again just before serving. KENTUCKY GINGER EGGNOG

Eggnog is a holiday staple, and this version is quick and easy (always a plus for last-minute holiday prep). The recipe calls for ultrapasteurized store-bought nog, eliminating concerns posed by raw eggs in its homemade counterpart. The Canada Dry Ginger Ale and bourbon thin out the eggnog a bit and give it some extra flavor (and kick).  

Ingredients 6 cups store-bought eggnog (ultrapasteurized) 20 ounces Canada Dry Ginger Ale 12 ounces bourbon Optional: crushed ginger snaps and/or candied ginger   Directions Mix eggnog, Canada Dry Ginger Ale, and bourbon in punch bowl. Chill until ready to serve. Serve chilled in clear mugs or stemware.  

Optional (either or both): Carefully dip outside rims of glassware in the nog. Roll rims in crushed ginger snaps. Garnish side of each glass with a piece of candied ginger. Santa's Secret If you want to take your garnish game to the next level, sprinkle colored sugar on top of each serving. A red/green combo stands out against the eggnog, while gold adds a touch of elegance. Until 12/31/17 Dr Pepper/Seven Up, Inc. will donate $0.10 for every specially-marked 7UP, CANADA DRY and SQUIRT 2-Liter bottle, 20oz
