While down in St. Martin eating lunch at an outdoor restaurant/beach hut (I believe it’s called Waikiki La Plage at Orient Bay), a bottle of rum punch was placed on the table. I recall it tasting slightly strong (could have been the lack of ice) with a hint of fruit and spice (nutmeg, but the bride thinks cinnamon). Unfortunately my recollection is VERY cloudy as we managed to polish off the bottle and I can’t recall the label. But what I can remember has me thinking how pleasant it would be to concoct my own bottled rum punch/cocktail this summer for sipping outdoors around the patio. So, does anyone have a recipe that would approximate the ingredients in a bottled rum punch from “the islands”? Or maybe you have a recipe for a rum punch that may work well as a bottled cocktail? I did find this eGullet link with info from Gary Regan on bottled cocktails and this informative piece over at BarMixMaster.com Thanks in advance, Rich
