This recipe hails from the days when I did a lot of cooking with alcoholic beverages, & when I made a number of party punches with the same. Many of them have been put aside, however, since my other half is an active member of AA. Still, I have a few of the recipes around, & here is one of them. Preparation time does not inclued the time it takes to chill the punch.
