Peter Rains' Excellent Punch

Here is a great recipe for the hot summer days:

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Honey
  • 1 lemon
  • 2 litres lemonade
  • 1 orange
  • 1 litre Ginger Ale
  • 1 cucumber
  • 1 pint strong cold tea
  • 3 or 4 cloves
  • 1 litre of Orange or Apple juice
  • 3 sticks of cinnamon
  • 1 Granny Smith apple
  • 1 Cox’s Orange pippin

Method

Slice all the fruit. Mix all the ingredients together, preferably 6-8 hours before drinking as this improves the flavours.

Add ice cubes just before serving.

This goes down well at outdoor meetings/ conventions.

Thanks to Margaret Lockett for this recipe.
