Black Jack Rum Punch

Description

The Black Jack Rum Punch pays homage to Black Jack chews, the iconic aniseed-flavoured sweets produced by Barratt since the 1920s. Known for their bold liquorice taste and once-black, later pink-and-white wrappers, these chewy treats divided opinion but became a nostalgic favourite for those who loved their unique flavour. By pairing the deep, aromatic notes of aniseed with tropical rum punch elements, this cocktail transforms a childhood classic into a sophisticated, exotic drink.

Ingredients

40 ml Dark rum
20 ml Aniseed Liqueur
40 ml Pineapple juice
20 ml Orange juice
15 ml lime juice
10 ml Grenadine
Ice
1 piece Pineapple Wedge (or star anise, for garnish)

Instructions

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add dark rum, aniseed liqueur, pineapple juice, orange juice, lime juice, and grenadine. Shake well until chilled. Strain into a tall glass filled with fresh ice. Garnish with a pineapple wedge or a floating star anise for a dramatic finish.
