Link: 6 punch tips →

Though people are catching on, I think punch is still under-appreciated in both homes and at cocktail bars. Like many things related to spirits and cocktails, punch got a bit of a bad reputation in the 1970s and 1980s. A good host should know - and deploy - some basic punch tips.

“Punch should be lighter than a regular cocktail because it is meant to be sipped continuously over a long period of time. Partygoers should be able to have several cups without getting too smashed. Look to tea and citrus to lengthen your punch.”

Arrackuiri

A late post (from December 26, a couple of days ago) of the Arrackuiri, the first recipe I pulled and made from the Death & Co. Book I received for Christmas. As you might infer from the title, it's a classic daiquiri recipe with Batavia Arrack as the base spirit. The color comes from a small amount of Pomegranate Molasses (which you should totally have on hand for making grenadine).
