- Summary
- A boating-club split-base punch preserving the social sporting branch of iced rum service.
This is useful because it keeps named boating and club punch culture visible rather than flattening everything into anonymous house drinks.
Unlike the shaken fruit punches nearby, this one is explicitly stirred over fine ice.
Compared with Brandy and Rum Punch, this is leaner and less fruit-built, with the boating identity carried by the name and service style.
