I had a bottle of the stuff for <b>years</b>, moved it three times and used, maybe, five ounces in all that time. Screamin' greenness aside...how was the punch?<br /><br />Ben ~ I remember that. If I'm not mistaken, Gretchen was still alive when you got the feline throat warmer. Best use those Voss bottles ever got put.Matthew Rowleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00613982533349459637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6101223716619464303.post-22204375528799177642010-11-26T06:56:29.159-08:002010-11-26T06:56:29.159-08:00My dad had this recipe pasted in the front of his ...My dad had this recipe pasted in the front of his Mr. Boston's guide. It had been clipped from the old Philadelphia Bulletin newspaper in the 70s.<br /><br />The first time I made it, I didn't realize that the large quantity of liquor would be so expensive (poor college student, so I bought the Blue Curacao instead of the Orange Curacao because it was 20 cents cheaper (POOR college student).<br /><br />The Blue Curacao mixes with the yellow lemon juice to turn the entire thing bright screaming green. Surprise!!<br /><br />Therefore, as far as I know, I am the official innovator of Green Fish House Punch. <br /><br />Feel free to freak out your guests the next time you try this recipe.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02557598539640390108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6101223716619464303.post-64616580554821334612010-11-16T19:55:17.414-08:002010-11-16T19:55:17.414-08:00Matt, this reminds me of having the pleasure of ca...Matt, this reminds me of having the pleasure of catsitting for Earl and having a night of access to your esteemable culinary volumes. Punch was gratis. I awoke at 6 AM next to an empty bottle, a volume of Turkish cookery my pillow, an outstretched cat around my face like a mink stole.

It has a great peach flavor without seeming fake; however, it was too subtle to really pick out in the recipe I used (4 oz per 100-120 oz bowl) but might work well in Gretchen's recipe.<br /><br />And yes, getting everything cold is key. I put all the booze bottles in the freezer overnight and everything else in the fridge so when it is mixed, it already has a good head start on chilling and if your party is in full swing, ice isn't even necessary.frederichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17939679837071519844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6101223716619464303.post-38618277780545633872010-11-14T08:08:32.592-08:002010-11-14T08:08:32.592-08:00As usual, an entertaining post.
