While this cocktail is inspired by a dessert, it isn’t a particularly sweet drink. “It’s more fresh and fizzy, and highly drinkable,” says Jessica. “With the rum, it’s adjacent to a Mojito. A real summery juice, and a true crowd-pleaser.”
Like with most things when hosting at home, preparation is key. Being able to pre-make this punch, complete with extra fruit sliced and ready for garnishing glasses and new batches, means this is an excellent choice for a crowd.
Adding large blocks of ice only when you are ready to serve means the punch won’t sit around and lose its, well, punch. Dilution is the enemy here, so you could even consider leaving ice out of the punch altogether and simply dropping large cubes into people’s glasses when they’re ready for a glass.
