History
Rum-laced fruit, balanced rather than sweet, as with most Trader Vic classics.
Victor Bergeron stipulated that this particular cocktail was to be presented in one of his custom-made green cartridge mugs, which are shown here. The recipe provided is an adaptation from the 1972 revised edition of Trader Vic's Bartender's Guide. "GUN CLUB PUNCH–1 Juice of 1 lime 1½ ounces unsweetened pineapple juice 1 dash grenadine 1 dash curaçao 1 ounce light Puerto Rican rum 1 ounce dark Jamaica rum Blend with 1 scoop shaved ice in electric drink mixer. Pour into green big shot glass. Fill glass with ice cubes. Decorate with fresh mint and a fruit stick."
