Game Day Fish House Punch Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the sugar, lemon juice, orange juice and 4 cups chilled water together in a large punch bowl, and stir to dissolve the sugar. Pour in the rums, ginger ale, and peach slices. Add some ice to chill.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan bring 1 3/4 cups water and sugar to a boil over medium-high heat; cook, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
• Transfer sugar mixture to a large container. Add 8 1/2 cups water, lemon juice, rum, Cognac, whiskey, peach brandy, apple juice, and bitters; stir to combine. Add a large block of ice. Let stand in a cool place for 1 hour before serving.
• Serve punch in rocks glasses over ice; garnish with a lemon slice if desired.

Steps:

• Dissolve the sugar in the water in a punch bowl. Add the lemon juice, then the other ingredients. Add a four-pound block of ice to the bowl and let it melt for two hours. This makes up to two gallons if you can wait until all the ice has melted.

Steps:

• Dissolve 3/4 pound of sugar with just enough water for the purpose, add 1 quart lemon juice, and let these steep together for about 1 hour.
• In a separate container, preferably a large jug, blend 2 quarts Jamaica rum, 1 quart cognac, and 4 ounces peach brandy, diluted with about 1 1/2 quarts water. Cover the jug tightly to prevent evaporation and let the liquors steep.
• Merge these two mixtures in a punch bowl containing a large block of ice. With an occasional gentle stir, let them brew for 2 hours. Taste for strength; if insufficiently diluted, add water. On a warm day, the melting ice will need little assistance if any. In wintry weather, it might need a quart.

Steps:

• Pour the sugar, water, rum, lemon juice, brandy, and peach brandy into a large bowl over a large disk of ice.
• Stir until blended, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Add the peach slices to float, and serve in chilled glasses.
