Fish House Punch Recipe

Rumor has it that the Fish House Punch Recipe was created in colonial times at the State Fishing and Social Club in Pennsylvania. The passage of so much time would indicate that this punch tastes better than its name suggests. It does.

Treat yourself to the amusing
history of the original Fish House Punch recipe.



Fish House Punch

This is undoubtedly the modern version of this punch recipe. Don't miss the charming original version, above.

3 cups fresh lemon juice
Powdered sugar or simple syrup
6 cups (1 1/2 quarts) brandy
2 cups (1 pint) peach brandy
2 cups (1 pint) light rum
2 cups strong tea* (optional)
4 cups (1 quart) club soda
Ice mold

*Tip: Brewing a greater number of tea leaves or tea bags for a short time produces less bitter tea than brewing a little tea for a long time.

  • Chill all ingredients well before mixing.

  • Sweeten the lemon juice to taste with the powdered sugar or simple syrup. Pour the lemon mixture into a punch bowl.

  • Stir in the brandies, rum, and tea.

  • Add the club soda last, just before serving.

  • Float an ice mold and, if desired, citrus slices. Makes about 40 servings.
