Oldport’s Party Rum Shrub

From Holiday Entertaining

Beverages Recipes

Yield: Serves 20-25.

From the Newport (Rhode Island) Historical Society's Christmas celebration.

• 6 cups light rum
• 6 cups dark rum
• 3 cups lime juice
• 1-1/2 cups lemon juice
• 2 cups sugar
• 4 cups water

Mix all ingredients in large glass or pottery container and let stand (refrigerated and covered) for 7 days. Serve in punch bowl with a block of ice. Bottled juices may be used, but freshly squeezed juice is far superior and will make a great difference in the taste. Strain freshly-squeezed juice well to remove pulp before mixing with other ingredients.
