Don't get pulled away from the big game to play host -- prepare a batch of fish house punch from Lawrence Green of Minetta Tavern before guests arrive.

Ingredients

Serves 20

  • 1 3/4 cups demerara sugar
  • 4 1/4 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 (750 mL) bottles aged rum, preferably Old New Orleans

  • 1/2 (1 liter) bottle whiskey, preferably Jack Daniels

  • Large ice cubes, for serving
  • Lemon slices, for garnish (optional)

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan bring 1 3/4 cups water and sugar to a boil over medium-high heat; cook, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
