Jamaican Rum Punch Recipe

This Jamaican Rum Punch Recipe is extremely easy to make. It goes very well with a designated driver.

The rule of thumb for a strong Jamaican Rum Punch is to use your ingredients in these proportions:

1 of bitter
2 of sweet
3 of strong
4 of weak

Personally, I find that "3 of strong" is enough to wake the dead, but maybe I'm just a weakling. My rum punch recipe uses 2 of strong, and I've had no complaints so far.

Jamaican Rum Punch

Ingredients

1 cup lime juice
1 1/2 cups Anchor Strawberry Syrup
1/2 cup honey
2 cups Wray and Nephew Overproof Rum
4 cups water
A few whole grains of pimento (all spice)

Mix all the ingredients together in a large bowl, until the syrup and honey are well blended with the other ingredients. Ready to serve over ice.

Variations: The honey can be omitted and two cups of syrup used. Other brands of white rum may be used - vary the quantity according to the strength of the rum. Use syrup in other flavours or brands.

Hope you enjoy. Don't drink it too fast, it will creep up on you!
