Make it at home, bring it over, serve it up, it’s as easy as sugar cookies. Nicaragua’s best, the Flordecopia punch is made with Flor De Caña rum, the only rum from Nicaragua. Subtle hints of caramel and vanilla mesh perfectly with the fresh lemon juice, cinnamon and apple juice to make this drink that ultimate party punch.

Ingredients (makes 1 – multiply by the number of people):

  • 2 parts Flor De Caña 7-year Grand Reserve
  • 4 sugar cubes
  • 3 parts club soda
  • 2 whole cloves’
  • 1 pinch of fresh nutmeg
  • 1 part lemon juice
  • 2 parts apple juice

Method:

  1. Dissolve the sugar cubes in 1 oz. of club soda (this generally involves muddling to help process)
  2. Muddle the cloves with the sugar cubes
  3. After the sugar cubes and cloves are muddled/dissolved, add the rest of the ingredients one at a time and stir as added
  4. Add ice once all of the ingredients have been added and stirred
  5. Stir the punch until it is chilled

Strain the punch into a glass or punch bowl, depending on the size of the portion, top with 2 parts club soda and garnish with apple slices and cinnamon sticks.
