Buckner Punch

For each quart bottle of champagne mix and add one wineglassful of good brandy, one wineglassful of good rum, one wineglassful of good arrack, one wineglassful of good kirsh, one wineglassful of good anisette, one wineglassful of good Maraschino, one wineglassful of good Curaçoa, two slices of ripe pineapple, two slices of sweet orange, one toddy glassful of pulverized sugar. At first put in a small quantity of ice, and later fill the bowl with large lumps of ice. It should stand three hours before using.

N.B.—The foregoing concoction would, I think, be the death or destruction of any one who sipped it. I should advise two quarts of water to each quart of punch! —E. E.
