Jungle Juice
Adapted  from "The "Pirates‘ House Punch Skull Crusher"
recipe  from The Pirates‘ House, Savannah, GA.*

This is one of those adaptations created because I needed to make a small batch instead of the huge quantity described in the cookbook.  I also eliminated an ingredient or two and improvised.   This is great for a summer "Happy Hour" on your deck or in your backyard.   It does creep up on you because it doesn't taste like alcohol so be careful!   Richard loves this one when he is particularly stressed and needs to pretend he is on vacation.  Pour over ice in a tall glass.  You can add those silly paper umbrellas if you have them.

*The Pirate's House Restaurant, established mid-1700s,
was originally a rendezvous for blood-thirsty pirates and sailors.
