Country Club Punch

By Tom Bullock


Take 1-1/2 lbs. of Cut Loaf Sugar and rub the lumps on the skins of 4 Lemons and 2 Oranges until the Sugar becomes well saturated with the oil from the skins.

Then put the sugar thus prepared into a large porcelain-lined or agate mixing vessel, and add:

12 Oranges, sliced.

1 Pineapple, sliced.

1 box Strawberries.

2 bottles (quarts) Apollinaris Water.

Stir thoroughly with oak paddle or large silver ladle, and add:

1 jigger Benedictine.

1 jigger Red Curacoa.

1 jigger Maraschino.

1/2 jigger Jamaica Rum.

1 quart Brandy.

4 quarts Tokay or Sweet Catawba Wine.

2 quarts Madeira Wine.

4 quarts Chateau Margaux.

Mix well with oak paddle or ladle and strain into another bowl in which has been placed a block of clear ice. Then pour in 6 quarts Champagne.

Decorate the Ice with Fruits, Berries, etc.

Serve in Punch cups or glasses, dressing each glass with Fruit and Berries from the bowl.
