Ingredient Alternatives
Dark Rum
Kraken Dark Rum is a favourite of Nikalene & Grant’s, however any rum like Bundaberg Rum will be suitable.
If you don’t drink Rum, this cocktail will work beautifully with your favourite Gin or Vodka also.
Thai Basil
Sometimes Thai Basil can be difficult to find, this punch will also work well with fresh Mint or Sweet Basil.
Morello Cherries
In our variations we use Blueberries to replace Morello Cherries with the Low Carb or Low Fodmap needs.
Ruby Red Grapefruit
Can’t get Ruby Red Grapefruits to use as a garnish? No worries! Sliced fresh oranges will be delicious.
