Happy Punch Day! Here is a brief history of punch recipes.
Today’s party punch recipes are said to stem from an ancient East Indian recipe of five ingredients, the term punch being derived from panch, the Hindi word for ‘five’. The notion is only mildly debated and, sure enough, arrack (mostly fermented palm sap), tea or spices, sugar, water, and lemon, the five ingredients, are found in most punch recipes today.
British sailors of the 1700’s were very fond of the concoction. They spread the punch recipe to seaport taverns like bees spread pollen. There, the original punch recipe was tinkered with, of course, and many came to consider themselves ‘master punch brewers’. The result was a slew of punch recipes as colorfully named as any English tavern. Dragoon, Bombay, Fish House and Artillery are a few still popular. The famous Fish House Punch recipe is actually credited by some, not to a British pub, but to afishing and social club in Schuylkill, Pennsylvania here in “the colonies.”
New recipe or old, punch is still the perfect party drink, the quick, fun, easy, festive, inexpensive crowd-pleaser it’s always been. (Source: www.greatpartyrecipes.com )
