Century Club Punch.

  • Take 1 pint of old Santa Cruz rum.
  • Take 1 pint of old Jamaica rum.
  • Take 5 pints of water.

With the addition of lemon juice and sugar to suit the taste, this makes a nice punch.

The precise portions of spirit and water, or even of the acidity and sweetness, can have no general rule, as scarcely two persons make punch alike.
