What it is
The sailor's golden punch: Swedish punsch — a sweet, spiced liqueur of arrack (Batavia arrack from Java), rum, tea, lemon and sugar, served warm in winter or chilled — the drink of student nations and pea-soup Thursdays. Origins: the Swedish East India Company brought arrack in the 1700s; punsch became the national tipple of the 1800s. Made from: Batavia arrack, rum, sugar, tea, lemon, spices. How it's made: 1) Blend arrack and rum with sweet tea and lemon. 2) Spice; bottle. 3) Serve hot (with ärtsoppa pea soup on Thursdays) or iced. Served: in small cups, historically from silver punsch bowls at student dinners. Flavor: funky-sweet, spiced, tea-dark. Strength: 25-26%. Culture: punsch and pea soup on Thursdays is an institution older than the republic of students who defend it. See also: Swedish Akvavit.
