Anyone have a good recipe for the perfect Rum Punch ? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" />

One part sour
one part sweet
one part strong
one part weak

Bobby Flay

Try this one...

1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
1 cup pineapple juice
1 cup guava nectar
1 measure Mt. Gay rum
Dash of freshly squeezed lime juice
Dash of Angostura bitters
Grenadine to desired taste and color
Orange slices ad pineapple wedges, for garnish

In a pitcher, combine the first seven ingredients. Pour over tall glasses of ice and serve. Garnish each with an orange slice and a wedge of pineapple.

The perfect rum punch depends a lot on your favorite rum and your favorite juices. I despise Grenadine, for instance..... I use cranberry, orange, pineapple, papaya nectar ( in a pinch apricot nectar is not half shabby) and Cruzan Amber. Grated nutmeg on top with fresh lime cuts to squeeze. Plenty of ice, shake well.

I know thats not a recipe, just seems to work out whenever I make it.

Add a splash of Myers Dark Rum over the top, tastes great and a good complement to the organish color of this cocktail.
