#42: Beachcombers Punch


     It seems only fitting, with the Beachcomber's Gold being such a notoriously bad and gross tiki drink on the Log, that the Beachcomber's Punch is the exact opposite.  So much good stuff in this cocktail, makes it a 5-star drink to me.  1/2 oz lime juice, 1/2 oz grapefruit juice, 1/2 oz apricot brandy, 1/2 oz simple syrup, mix bitters, pernod, and 1.5 oz demerara rum.  This all blends together with crushed ice, minty stalk and cherry to make a sweet, flavorful drink.  A beachcomber classic, and a guaranteed good time.


     Speaking of classic, the rest of the group decided to dive in to a Tonga Punch bowl.  Serves four, this is a beast, as pictured below.  I wish I had one of those amazing bowls with the "Tonga Hut" print on the side!
