I used the quantity recipe for 100 people, sometimes cutting it in half to serve 50. The hardest part is squeezing all of the oranges and lemons, but the fresh juice is key to it tasting good. Having plenty of ice is important too, as some guests will not want a strong drink. I guess this concotion is a bit unusual, in that much of the alcohol comes from wine, but the fresh juice and the rum counters it well. Vern
