• It is best to chill all ingredients before combining together — we
recommend refrigerating overnight.
• Do not include more than 50% carbonated liquid in any beverage
mixture, as this will adversely affect the operation of the Beverage
Fountain (carbonated liquid examples include soda, champagne,
seltzer water and sparkling wine).
• To optimize and preserve carbonation, we suggest adding carbonated
beverages to the punch last.
• To complement any punch recipe, lightly moisten the rim of each
punch cup with water, lemon or lime juice and dip each rim in sugar.
• For a lower calorie option, substitute diet or light versions of any
beverage listed in our recipes.
• To keep your punch cold while in the Rival™ Beverage Fountain, you
may add ice cubes to the BOWL. To prolong the flavor of the punch,
you may want to prepare ice cubes using the punch itself or one of
the juices included in your recipe (prepare in freezer the night before).
Add ice cubes to BOWL just before beginning operation and add as
needed.
• You may also garnish the punch with frozen or fresh fruits such as
lemon or lime slices, strawberries, or raspberries (frozen fruits can also
be used as an alternative to ice cubes).
• How much punch should you prepare for the occasion? A good
measure is to allow about 1 gallon per group of 10 guests. This
assumes two six-ounce servings of punch per guest. Adjust this
estimate according to your taste, choice of punch (i.e. alcoholic vs.
non-alcoholic) and what other food beverages you will be serving.
QUICK TIPS
Problem Solution
BOWL is overflowing.
Difficult to remove
BOWL from BASE
when taking apart
fountain after use.
The fountain is making
noise.
The fountain is
splashing.
• BOWL maximum capacity is 1 1 /
2
gallons
when fountain is off.
• Make sure fountain is turned on and flowing
before adding up to an additional 1 gallon of
liquid (for a total of 2 1 /
2
gallons maximum).
• Before turning off the fountain, use a cup to
transfer excess liquid into a pitcher if the
BOWL is more than half full or if more than
1 1 /
2
gallons are left in the entire unit.
• After shutting off the fountain, if it appears
that the fountain is about to overflow, quickly
plug it back in and remove more liquid.
• Securely hold BASE and pull BOWL up from
BASE (BOWL does not twist off the BASE).
• Always operate the fountain ONLY when
there is liquid in it.
• Make sure the FLOW COLLAR is placed on
the OUTER TUBE correctly. Place the FLOW
COLLAR so that the side reading “THIS SIDE
UP” is facing upwards. Position the FLOW
COLLAR so that the double arrows are facing
upwards.
• Make sure all four DOMES are placed
securely on the STEMS in the LARGE TIER.
• Rotate each tier so the spout placement is
staggered.
• NOTE: The liquid from the MEDIUM TIER
should flow down through each SPOUT and
onto the DOMES.
