Unfortunately, the peach brandy in the original Fish House Punch was the real deal: actual aged peach brandy, not the brandy-based liqueur we're stuck with today (though Marie Brizard is one of the best of those).

My favorite FHP recipe is the one printed by Ted "Dr. Cocktail" Haigh in Vintage Spirits and Forgotten Cocktails. It can be found online here:

The addition of green tea and maraschino (and dialing down the peach brandy/liqueur) really makes it shine.
