“The easiest way to create a punch is to base it around one bottle of hard liquor,” explains Dalton Bedard, the bar manager at Charlie Park in Tallahassee, Florida. He prepares a batch-cocktail spin on the Jungle Bird, where he taps Plantation Pineapple Rum, a richly fruity spirit that he considers one of his favorites, especially for Tiki-style drinks. The coconut water, lime juice, and simple syrup bring balance to the bitterness, while the Angostura bitters bring an unexpected brightness to round it all out.
