Scotch Punch Up

Read on for my recipe for Scotch Punch Up!

Well it’s New Year very soon and what could be better for your Hogmanay party than my Scotch Punch Up! which is a great growd pleaser. Punch is always a good thing to serve if you have a big group of people, it keeps things simple for you, the host and everyone enjoys the tipple too!

Scotch Punch Up

Party drinks

Mixed drinks served en masse inthe form of fruit cups or punch are great time savers for parties. You can either serve this Scotch Punch Up! in a large punch bowl with a ladle and glasses at the ready or pour it from a jug. Either way it frees you up from having to make up individual drinks.

Mix a party punch

As the name suggests this is a whisky based punch but has lots of other flavours in there as well, including rosemary, ginger, orange, lemon and apple. You can make it as strong as you like by just ajusting your measures in the booze department.

Remember to make up a non alcoholic punch for drivers too.

By the way, this recipe for Scotch Punch Up! is from my book A Wee Taste Of Scotland.

Have a great New Year everyone. Thanks so much for supporting Larder Love And Greek Olives & Honey throughout 2017. Here’s to a great 2018.

Cheers and Yammas!

    Like the flavors here. I assume that some of the measurements are typos? Will try it.

      Hi Coleen
      This makes about 1.5 litres so it totally depends on the size of glasses you are using to serve the punch as to how many servings you’ll get.
