Planter's Punch No. 2
The Story
Planter's Punch is a classic Tiki cocktail. There is no end to the variations on this drink. In fact, this is the second one we've featured at The Runaway Anchor. This particular variant is our tweak of a recipe we got from Tammy Coxen (https://www.tammystastings.com/). Planter's Punch goes down so easy, that we've bumped the rum up just enough to (maybe) keep you from throwing these back at too quick of a pace.
Ingredients
2 oz Aged Rum (Jamaican)
1 oz Pineapple Juice
1 oz Simple Syrup (1:1)
½ oz Lime Juice
Angostura Bitters
Preparation
Combine rum, lime, pineapple, and simple in a cocktail shaker
Shake with ice for 8-10 seconds
Serve in a Lowball over ice
Top with 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters
If you want to get fancy, you can strain this into your glass over pebble ice, but we just do an open pour out of the shaker.
