The recipe I see for Dale's Planter's Punch online uses 1/2 oz of Allspice Dram for a whole punchbowl, with 5 oz. of each of the rums. 1/2 oz for this size recipe is too much in my opinion. Edit: Oops, this comment was intended for the Planter's Punch (Dale Degroff)


A bit sour. I combined with a few other recipes: split rum - 1 oz Goslings dark rum, 1 oz Smith & Cross Jamaican rum, add 1 oz pineapple juice, 1/2 oz. velvet falernum, top with soda.
