Planters Punch is today considered not a specific cocktail, but rather has grown as the generic name for a set of rum-based punches. Recipes vary, containing some combination of lemon juice, pineapple juice, lime juice, orange juice, grenadine, soda water, curaçao, Angostura bitters, and cayenne pepper. Another one of the drinks popularized by Trader Vic’s as part of the Tiki bar explosion. The first mention of the drink is in the late 1800’s and again in 1905. It gained popularity in the 50’s and 60’s as the tropical drink craze swept the US. Our recipe has all the standard ingredients but there are many variations on this theme. This is a drink you can play around with, more pineapple or less… It really is a matter of taste.

The creamier version of the Pink Lady for this recipe is thought to have been around since the 1920’s. As most older drinks there are many versions this one uses both cream and an egg white. Once named on Esquire’s list of the ten worst cocktails, most likely due to it’s girly nature and color, it is still a great drink that has more kick then one would think.
