Punch Recipe ✶ Planter's Punch

I make this fun and refreshing drink every 4th of July. It starts out with a slush base. The bitters off-set the sweetness just the right amount, and it's a beautiful color. Can be served in a punch bowl, or individual servings. Garnish with cherries, orange slices or other desired fresh fruit.

Ingredients

• 1 (6 ounce) can frozen limeade concentrate
• 14 fluid ounces water
• 1 ½ cups rum
• ¾ cup grenadine syrup
• ½ cup lime juice
• 1 tablespoon aromatic bitters
• 2 liters club soda

1. Pour limeade into a large pitcher with a lid; stir in water, rum, grenadine syrup, lime juice, and bitters until well mixed. Cover pitcher and freeze punch until slushy, 8 hours to overnight.
2. Fill individual serving glasses with ice; Spoon about 3 tablespoons punch-slush mixture over ice. Top with club soda and stir gently.
