6 cups water
1 cup white sugar
1 (6 ounce) package lime-flavored Jell-O(R) mix

1/2 cup lemon juice
2 (2 liter) bottles chilled lemon-lime soda

Preparation

Mix water, sugar, and gelatin mix in a large saucepan and bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium and cook at a boil, whisking frequently, until gelatin and sugar have dissolved, about 3 minutes.

Pour mixture into a large punch bowl and stir in lemon-lime soda; float a black plastic witch hat atop the punch.
