I was watching the DVD of the Simpsons second season, and there's one episode where Flanders gets Homer smashed on "Flanders Planters Punch", which, according to ol' Ned contains "three shots of rum, a jigger of bourbon, and a little dabaroo of creme de casis".

Well, I just had to whip up some Flanders, but the thing is, made Ned's way, it's ALL liquor.

So I used the recipe for Planter's Punch in TRT as a starting point for the mixers (lime, lemon, sugar, grenadine), but kept Ned Flander's hootch suggestions intact, and came up with this:

Ned, Donn, and Vic (with the help of JT) present Flander's Planters Punch 2.0:

(for two)

6 oz rum
3 oz bourbon (a jigger being 1.5 oz)
2 oz creme de casis (a daberoo? Ok, that's an ounce!)
a bit less than 1/2 oz grenadine (too much and it'll taste like cough syrup)
1 tsp sugar
2.5 oz lime juice
1/2 oz lemon juice

Blend or shake vigourously, pour over crushed ice.

This stuff is serious - look what it did to Homer!
