The story behind Papua Rum Punch
Fresh ginger is the defining note in this Papua New Guinea-inspired punch, giving pineapple, lime and dark rum a warm edge. Its spicy-tropical profile works as a lively first drink when the heat begins to ease.
This is a Where It's Five house creation inspired by local ingredients and drinking traditions, not a historic national cocktail.
