I agree. This is a very delightful cocktail. Very citrus tasting, but with a slight hint of the rum. We used a light Barbados rum which is not as sweet as many of the other rums. A little on the tart side, but very refreshing.

Very likable drink, a definite four. Tanglefoot seems to have two meanings, it’s an insect repellant, and, in the US, an archaic word for “low-quality whiskey, especially home-brewed”. Which sort of connects to the prohibition in America, an association supported by the inclusion of Swedish punsch. There is, though, no history of this drink available here or elsewhere – or at least I have not been able to dig it up. Can anyone shed light on this?
