OUR DOUBLE, DOUBLE PUNCH RECIPE

Perfect for parties, Halloween gatherings, or any event that calls for theatre in a glass, this punch doesn’t just taste great — it looks the part too. Lychees stuffed with dark berries float like eerie 'eyeballs', and black sugar-rimmed tumblers add a dramatic finishing touch. Easy to batch, quick to build, and impossible to ignore.

Ingredients in the Cocktail

Dark Rum

Dark rum provides the warm, full-bodied base for the punch. Its caramel and molasses notes bring depth and richness that balance the tropical fruit flavours.

Pineapple Juice

This adds natural sweetness and a tangy tropical note that makes the punch vibrant and easy to sip. Its acidity also helps balance the heaviness of the rum.

Blue Curaçao

Known for its vivid blue colour and orange-like flavour, Blue Curaçao gives the punch a visual wow-factor and adds a sweet citrusy undertone that pairs well with both pineapple and rum.

Double Dutch Double Lemon

Added just before serving, this mixer delivers a refreshing citrus top note with bright lemon and lime flavours. The fizz cuts through the sweetness of the punch and brings balance, freshness, and lift.

Lychee and Berry Garnish

This creative garnish not only adds a spooky visual (perfect for Halloween) but also enhances the sensory experience. The lychee’s delicate sweetness pairs well with tropical flavours, while the berries provide contrast in both flavour and appearance.

Expert Tip

Chill all ingredients ahead of time to reduce the need for ice in the bowl — this helps preserve flavour and prevent dilution. You can pre-stuff lychees with berries and freeze them for a creepy, chilling garnish that also keeps the punch cold.
