Hey All,

Karacal and I will be attending our PHC meeting next month, where they are having a boat drink fundraiser and we need your help.

Does anyone have a recipe that you can mix up ahead of time, and will still taste as good as when you mixed it? There can be no mixing on the premise, so we have to bring them pre-mixed.

They are charging $5 a 16oz drink, so need something worth the $$.

Thanks for any ideas and recipes!

This summer, when not drinking margaritas, I've been cooling off with this:

Equal parts: Captain Morgan Spiced Rum, Peachtree Schnapps, Sweet and Sour Mix, and
Cranberry Juice.

No on site mixing needed, just premake, give a little shake, pour over ice and enjoy.

Sounds yummy! Does it have a name?

Not that I know of. I picked the recipe up a while ago at a Captain Morgan tasting.

I did a quick search and found the same recipe using 3 ounce measurements and its listed as a Long Island Sunset.

And I like the EQUAL parts..makes mixing so easy!
Thanks again! Barb and I will have to get together and "sample" this before the gathering.

This depends on how soon from mixing to serving you have. Don't want the fizzy stuff to get too flat.

"Killer Punch"

1.75 liter (2 fifths) 90 proof Southern Comfort
6 C Cranberry juice
2 qts. 7-up
2 C fresh lemon juice (8-10 lemons)
2 dashes bitters
4 bottles dry Brut champagne

It's sneaks up on ya.

I wonder if we mix it all except the champagne and 7up which we can pour right before we go in? Has to last 2 hours.

You betcha. It's lasted at parties our family has had. Don't put ice in the punch bowl, have it in another bucket.

Jack can probably give you a good boat drink recipe.

I've got one I've been playing with at work, the problem is it's mixed with tonic water, and so if you can't add that at the event, you run the risk of the drink being flat, but here goes:

.75 oz Light Rum (I use Flor de Cana 4 year, but Bacardi will work.)
.75 oz Myers's Rum
.5oz Almond Syrup (Should be able to find at your grocery store.)
1 oz Pineapple juice

Shake and strain into a 12oz glass filled with ice. Top with tonic water, garnish with a lime. If you want to get nuts, when you're shaking the drink, throw a little fresh thyme in there (no joke, it makes the drink go from "hey this is pretty tasty" to "Holy crap, this is awesome!!")

OK this is from Playboy.. and it's an old school recipe
(they had a great article on the classics)


2 cups gold rum
2 cups dark rum
2 cups simple syrup
2 cups pineapple juice
3 cups water
juice of one lime
juice of one lemon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
mix all ingredents in bowl with lots of ice

Turns their tongues blue? Ha! Then we could tell who sampled without paying! LOL
The only thing is we could mix this up and have to add the pineapple juice to taste to the mixture before, but that would work. Thanks Nancy!
