Origin of rum punch<\/h2>\n
Surprisingly, rum does not originate in the tropics, Hawaii or Martinique, but in India<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The word punch comes from ‘panch’ which means 5, like the five ingredients in its original recipe. It consisted of a mixture of tafia (the ancestor of rum), sugar, fruit juice, cinnamon and tea<\/strong>. Tafia was a type of unrefined rum that was extremely strong in alcohol<\/strong>.<\/p>\n It was almost undrinkable, especially when it was time to go to sea. Between the alcohol and the heavy swell, the crew had a hard time! British sailors had the ingenious idea of mixing it with all sorts of exotic fruits<\/strong> they found in their Indian colonies.<\/p>\n The recipe transformed into a delicious, fruity beverage, but the name remained the same.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n When it comes to making a delicious punch<\/strong>, in general you can choose between two types of rum. Either amber or white rum<\/strong>.<\/p>\n White rum is usually the preferred choice for punch<\/strong>. You could, for example, use our BANQERO Silver<\/a> white rum. It is more vegetal and floral than amber rum, which is more full-bodied and therefore subtly reveals the flavours of the other ingredients you add. Also, it goes well with almost any fruit juice.<\/p>\n Amber rum<\/strong> that has been aged in casks has more structure and power and is therefore more present in the mouth. It brings more typical and woody notes<\/strong> to your punch. It is perfect with tangy fruit juices such as lemon, orange or pineapple.<\/p>\n Whether white or amber, it’s up to you to choose the one you like for your punch<\/strong>.<\/p>\n White, amber and dark rum<\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n The ingredients are very easy to source.
