The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

Well, you'll certainly feel younger after a couple glasses. No promises regarding long-term effects, but the beachy blend of rum and pineapple with fizzy ginger ale is outstanding for summer party punches.

1 1/2 cup pineapple juice, well chilled
1 cup rum
4 1/2 cups ginger ale, well chilled
ice
Combine the pineapple juice and rum in a pitcher. Gently stir in the ginger ale.
Serve the punch over ice in tall glasses. Garnish with a pineapple wedge, if desired.

Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

I've been making this as a single cocktail for years (in smaller proportions obviously) and it's always a summer favorite. I needed to make a punch for a party last weekend and was looking up rum drinks and found my favorite cocktail made for a large batch! Such a happy surprise! Thank you for the recipe!

This should be called "packs-a-punch punch"! Great summery drink.
