    The Ti' Punch is the national drink of the French Islands of Martinique. Distillers on the island save their very best rhum for their unaged spirit and the Ti' Punch is more commonly prepared with this blanc rhum. Undiluted and served at room temperature, the Ti’ Punch is simple to prepare yet complex with flavour.
    For the unfamiliar the first sip may be daunting but the aromatics are undeniable. Each sip will uncover notes of grassy, vegetal, tropical fruit and fresh cane.

    One of the best ways to showcase rhum agricole. Are you a rhum agricole fan? Have you tried a Ti' Punch?

      I have no idea what rhum agri-whatever is. You've explained it, but over my head it went as usual.
      Distilled from cane sugar instead of molasses? Sounds interesting

      Hi Steve, had my first + wonderful Ti Punch a while ago in a cocktail bar on the island of Rügen in Germany with Clement or Trois Rivieres Blanc Rhum Agricole from Martinique @50% abv. Barkeeper opted for sugar cane syrup and added some orange zest to the mix on ice cubes. Very intense drink and whereas oftentimes ice threatens to water down your cocktail over time or just reduces the good stuff the ice actually helped as the Ti Punch due to the lack of "fillers" can take a lot and retain its integrity. Need to try this one at home soon. :-)

    Hi I lived for a couple of month in Guadeloupe’Island near Martinique, traditionnaly we start by puting the juice of the lime (and we put the lime into the glass), then we add the sugar (or honey). Wiith a spoon we shake the two ingrédients to mix sugar and lime. Finally we add the rhum as much as we want 😉 anyway thanks for revisiting this amazing cocktail and I hope you’ll like this version !!

Shaker full of ice, shake it up, and strained into a chilled Martini glass. We'll dedicate it to Dire Straits and call her the "Single-Handed Sailor" cocktail.

    Ok. 1/2 way I pause and went and made one. YUM!!! Use the 9 drops and a dash of lime bitters along with the sugar. Really sounds like the Caparaina. As for the idea of the leave the bottle there is a recipe in 1888 Harry Johnson’’s new and improved bartender manual called Rock and Rye. The recipe is "Use a whiskey glass. This drink must be very carefully prepared , and care must be taken to procure the best Rock Candy syrup, and also the best of Rye Whiskey, as this drink is an effective remedy for sore throats, etc. In serving the Rock and Rye, put 1/2 table-spoon of Rock Candy syrup into the glass, place a spoon in it, and hand the bottle or Rye Whiskey to the customer, to help himself.
