&lt;p&gt;A big bowl of bubbly punch makes a festive centerpiece for a holiday celebration and is also an easy way to serve a crowd, but be sure to plan ahead and make an ice ring, a large block of ice or large ice cubes a day before serving. To make a decorative ice ring, find a Bundt pan that&amp;rsquo;s no wider than your punch bowl, fill it about three-fourths full of water and freeze overnight.&lt;/p&gt;
