This recipe from Alex Bookless of The Passenger in Washington, DC makes a festive party-sized punch for holiday entertaining.
Notes: Bookless recommends using a large single block of ice, which you can make by freezing water in a large plastic tupperware container.
To make simple syrup, combine 1 cup water with 1 cup sugar in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved. Cool before using. Simple syrup will keep in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Bittermens tiki bitters are available online.
