Rum Punch

[mwinni]

Anybody got a good recipe for rum punch? Something similar to what Brendal serves after his dive trips. Recommendation for rum type. Thanks,

Mark Winninger, been going to Abaco for 15 years, and I'm having a desire for good rum punch.

1 shot light Bacardi, 1 shot dark (I like Ron Matusalem), 1 shot coconut rum (the kind they sell out there and I can't find in the states), 1/2 shot apricot brandy, small can of pineapple juice, shake, pour over ice makes one heck of a drink for one cup. Closest thing I've come up to Miss Emily's. Very potent.

Floridaskater and Dano,

I'm drooling. My wife says I have to wait until the weekend. She thinks after a couple of these I will be useless. Like I'm not that way anyway. A good rum punch let's me close my eyes and I'm in Abaco. Thank you,

Mark Winninger, s/v Prelude

Found this recipe many years ago while in the Abacos "researching stuff." It is for Goombay Smash, and the operative word is the second one. Delicious, dangerous (40% alcohol), easily made up in batches ahead of time, and the closest thing I could find to the famous Bluff House drink of the same name. Here goes: 1.5 oz amber rum, .5 oz coconut rum, 3 oz. pineapple juice, couple dashes lemon juice, couple dashes grenadine. Basically a 3/1/6 mix. Yum.
