Serve: Ladle into glasses, adding a little of the fresh fruit to each one.

Notes
Make Ahead: Combine the fruit juices and rum up to 24 hours ahead and keep covered in the refrigerator. Add the fresh fruit and ice closer to serving time.Use Chilled Ingredients: Start with cold juice and rum so you don't need as much ice, which can dilute the punch as it melts.Rum: I like using black or spiced rum for this Halloween version. The darker rum works especially well with the deep-colored fruit and gives the punch its moody Halloween look.Fresh Fruit: Figs, dark grapes, plums, and orange slices are my favorite combination for Halloween, but you can use the fruit you like best.Serving: This is a very large batch and makes about 30 servings. Make sure your punch bowl or drink dispenser is large enough to hold the punch, fresh fruit, and ice. If not, keep the extra punch chilled in a pitcher and refill the bowl as needed.Storage: Remove the ice and fruit from leftover punch and store the liquid covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
