Review
Retitled 'Swedish Daiquiri', this could be a hit. Aged rum (originally Jamaican rum) combines with tangy Swedish Punch balanced by lime juice. This cocktail loves dilution, so consider adding a splash of water or, perhaps better, serve on-the-rocks.
Variations/similar cocktails

Doctor No. 1 Equal parts of lime juice and Swedish Punch.

Used the Appleton Signature Rum which perfectly supplanted the cardamon, citrus and tea notes from the punsch.
