Substitutes for Swedish Punsch liqueur
Homemade Swedish punsch
Build one yourself: mix equal parts Batavia arrack, aged rum, 2:1 syrup and cooled strong black tea. It gets close to bottled punsch.
Jamaican rum
With no arrack, use two parts funky Jamaican rum in place of both spirits. You lose the arrack's distinctive note.
Punch (the mixed drink)
A fresh punch recipe is no stand-in, since Swedish punsch is a bottled spirit drink.
Description
At around 25% ABV and heavily sweetened, it does as much work as a sweetener as it does as a spirit.
