Refreshing

The classic Bajan rhyme to remember the recipe is: > "One of Sour, Two of Sweet, > Three of Strong, and Four of Weak." > To finish it off, an additional line is often added: > "A dash of Bitters and a sprinkle of Spice, > serve well chilled with plenty of Ice." > Decoding the Rhyme: The Classic Recipe This rhyme translates directly into the ingredient proportions. The "part" can be any measurement you choose—an ounce for a single drink or a large cup for a batch.

Editor's Note

The classic Bajan rhyme dictates this balanced, refreshing punch. Aged rum provides the backbone, while fresh lime and nutmeg offer a bright, aromatic finish.
