MR. MICAWBER'S FAVORITE GIN PUNCH



Mr. Micawber's Favorite Gin Punch image

According to his great-grandson, Cedric, Charles Dickens ''loved the ritual of mixing the evening glass of Gin Punch, which he performed with all the energy and discrimination of Mr. Micawber.'' You may recall that, in ''David Copperfield,'' Wilkins Micawber is uplifted by a humble gin punch: ''I never saw a man so thoroughly enjoy himself amid the fragrance of lemon-peel and sugar, the odour of burning spirit, and the steam of boiling water, as Mr. Micawber did that afternoon." Although this is called a punch, note that it's a serving for one - but don't let that stop you from making it for company. Its combination of spirit, warmth and spice will bring to mind a hot toddy, and it's fragrant and flavorful enough to supplant the more familiar whiskey-based version - at least for a season.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon honey
Pinch ground cinnamon
1 clove
Water just off the boil
1 1/2 oz. Madeira
1 1/2 oz. London dry gin
1 stick cinnamon (optional)
Grated nutmeg

Steps:

  • Juice 1/2 lemon through a strainer directly into a warmed, heatproof glass (like those used for Irish coffee). Add the sugar and honey, and stir. Add the cinnamon and clove. Fill the glass three-quarters full with water just off the boil. Stir. Add the Madeira and gin and stir gently with a spoon or with a cinnamon stick, if you prefer. Grate a little nutmeg on top.

WHAT-YOU-WILL PUNCH



What-You-Will Punch image

I named this punch after the subtitle of Shakespeare's comedy "Twelfth Night": A wonderfully boozy play merits a suitably potent (and fun) drink. The whiskey-based punch includes nutmeg and cinnamon, flavors that evoke the winter holiday from which the play takes its title - but it's delicious any time of year. Be sure to prepare the oleo-saccharum in advance.

Categories     cocktails

Yield (about 10 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup blood-orange oleo-saccharum (see recipe here)
2 cups whiskey (Something mellow; I think Irish whiskey works best here.)
2 cups brewed black tea, not too weak, not too strong (I prefer Darjeeling.)
1 1/2 cups fresh blood-orange juice
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
4 dashes Angostura bitters
4 dashes orange bitters
3 cinnamon sticks, slightly bruised
Blood-orange wheels (to garnish punch bowl)

Steps:

  • Prepare oleo-saccharum a day in advance. Combine it with whiskey, tea, blood-orange juice, lemon juice, bitters and cinnamon sticks in a pitcher. Refrigerate for at least three hours. Remove cinnamon sticks and transfer punch to a punch bowl. Add five cups of ice. Float blood-orange wheels in the bowl. Grate a little nutmeg on top of each serving.
