The history of punch is very rich. Its first discovery dates back several hundred years.

Our ancestors already knew about it and used it to cheer themselves up and warm themselves at the festive table, just like we do today.

Although the punch has undergone several recipe changes, its core ingredients remain unchanged.

Alcohol, water, tea, spices, lemon, and sugar still form the basis of this traditional drink. However, the type of alcohol used varies from country to country.

Some use brandy, while others use Jamaican rum or brown rum. There are also other variations, such as punch made with gin or wine. It’s also possible to make a non-alcoholic Christmas punch by replacing the alcohol with juice, making it suitable for kids to enjoy. Adding ginger can give it an extra kick.

If you’re not keen on making punch at home, you can also buy it from different manufacturers in various combinations. However, be cautious of added dyes and other ingredients.

The purchased semi-finished product usually contains around 20% alcohol, while you can adjust the alcohol content in homemade punch according to your preferences.
