DOW: Planter's Punch

>> Sunday, June 19, 2011

We were having a Cuban themed dinner, and one of our guests loves Planter's Punch, so it was natural for us to make this Caribbean treat. This is another of those drinks that has countless variations, so we made up our own, inspired by our own memories and a few resources online.

  • 1 oz dark rum
  • 1 oz light rum
  • 1/2 oz Cointreau
  • 2 oz orange juice
  • 2 oz lime juice
  • 1 oz lemon juice
  • 2 oz pineapple juice
  • 1/2 oz grenadine
  • dash Angostura Bitters
  • 2 oz sparkling water
We used fresh-squeezed orange, lime and lemon juices, and pureed the fresh pineapple in a blender. After mixing the first nine ingredients, we poured the punch into a highball glass filled with ice, leaving some room for the sparkling water, which we added just before serving.
