Planter's Punch Recipe

By Hector Rodriguez, About.com

Planter's Punch isn’t the name for a specific cocktail recipe. My favorite planter's punch combination calls for white and dark rum, triple sec, lemon and lime juice, simple syrup and a dash of grenadine syrup.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

  • cracked ice cubes
  • dash of grenadine
  • 2 parts white rum
  • 2 parts dark rum
  • 1 part lemon juice
  • 1 part lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon simple syrup
  • sparkling mineral water (for topping off)

Preparation:

Place 5 ice cubes in a cocktail shaker. Put all ingredients, except the mineral water, into the cocktail shaker. Briskly shake until a frost forms.

Place a few more ice cubes in a tall Collins glass. Strain the cocktail over the ice. Top off with sparkling mineral water. Garnish with a slice of fruit.
