The Caribbean Milk Punch is a historic and comforting cocktail, very popular in the Caribbean. It blends the depth of aged rum, the smoothness of milk, and warming spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or vanilla. Served cold or hot, it works wonderfully as a digestif, a cozy winter drink, or even a sweet and creamy aperitif.

• 5 cl aged rum
• 10 cl whole milk or almond milk
• 1 cl cane sugar syrup
• A pinch of cinnamon
• A pinch of nutmeg
• A few drops of vanilla extract (optional)
• Garnish: grated nutmeg, cinnamon stick

1. In a shaker, combine the aged rum, milk, cane syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla.
2. Add ice and shake vigorously if serving cold.
3. Serve in a tumbler or old fashioned glass.
4. Garnish with a dash of grated nutmeg and a cinnamon stick.
