Notes
Use fresh fruit juices whenever possible for best flavor—avoid canned or pre-made juice cocktails.
For parties, multiply the base ingredients but add citrus juices just before serving to keep punch fresh.
Try variations by adding cinnamon and nutmeg (Spiced Aloha), swapping half rum for mezcal (Smoky Island), or replacing orgeat with cream of coconut plus coconut rum (Coconut Cloud).
Avoid crushed ice in the shaker to prevent over-dilution.
Garnishes enhance aroma and presentation, so don’t skimp!
