Fruit punches are a delight across seasons. Here are some of the fruit punch varieties from across the world that are slightly more exotic than your quintessential punch recipes.
It is said that this famed cocktail has its origins in Tahiti and in those laidback tiki parties that are the highlight of tropical islands. You can prepare mai tai by bringing together white and dark rum, orgeat syrup, orange curaçao and lime juice.
You can prepare this eclectic punch by bringing together the muddled fruit with lots of Captain Morgan Dark Rum, some bitters and a hint of mint for garnish.
Caipirinha is the national drink of Brazil put together by blending cachaça or sugarcane liquor with fresh lime and lots of sugar. Incorporating other fruits like strawberries and passion fruit into the drink gives it a very fruity touch turning this conventional cocktail into a punch drink that highlights many delightfully sweet and sour tropical flavours.
You can make the spiked agua de jamaica by adding a splash of rum to the drink along with other punch ingredients like cinnamon and fruits such as lime and oranges.
You can prepare a fruity punch cocktail using neera by adding chunks of seasonal fruits like pineapples and oranges into the drink and a splash of dark rum if you want a boozier concoction.
