Clover-Club-Winter_M.. - Tales of the Cocktail

Punches
Our friendly neighborhood cocktail historian,
David Wondrich, defined punch perfectly as, “...a
large bore mixture of spirits, citrus, sugar, water and
spice.” Punch is the grandaddy of all mixed drinks.
There are recipes that go as far back as the 1600’s.
They’re a symbol of the communal spirit and meant
to be drunk among friends and colleagues.
Remember to share.

Collins and fizzes are both, in essence, sours topped
with soda. For example, the Tom Collins and the Gin
Fizz are made virtually the same way, except the Collins
has ice and is made in the glass that it is served in while
the fizz is shaken, strained, and served with no ice. Oh,
and to keep things interesting, sometimes if you simply
add soda water to a drink, that makes it a fizz too. No
one said this was easy. Cheers.
