  <introduction>
    <![CDATA[<p>Sunny afternoons are meant for lounging under shady trees with cool drinks, like this fruity punch. So find a tree, make a batch, and unwind.</p>


	<p><strong>What to buy:</strong>
Guava and peach nectars can be found in many Latin grocery stores, and some supermarkets carry <a href="http://www.knudsenjuices.com/products/natural_juices">these</a> by R.W. Knudsen.</p>


	<p>If you&#8217;ve <a href="/recipes/10683">made your own ginger beer</a> (and we think you should), then go ahead and use it here. Otherwise, look for a ginger beer that suits your taste. We prefer one with a nice note of sweet and a good kick of ginger, like <a href="http://www.regattagingerbeer.com/">Regatta</a>.</p>
