Calling all Guinness lovers (and haters!)
As someone who has only drunk one-half pint of Guinness at the Guinness factory in Dublin (because what else do you do there?), I can’t say I’m the biggest fan of the stout drink. However, I’ve grown up with a lot of Caribbean influences and I have to say, the way my Jamaican friends and family drink it is my favourite – Paul, if you’re reading this, you know exactly what I mean. It’s a little slice of the Caribbean.
Guinness punch is traditionally served at Christmas and there are a few variations, but for me, this simple way is the best way. You’ll need:
- 1 bottle of Guinness Foreign Extra (not the regular cans!)
- 1.5 tins of nourishment
- 1 tin of condensed milk
- Nutmeg
- Variations include the addition of white rum and vanilla
- Empty the bottle of Guinness into a large bowl
- Add tins of nourishment (don’t be put off by the froth!)
- Add tin of condensed milk (start with half if you don’t want it too sweet)
- Grate fresh nutmeg
- Whisk until smooth
- Chill and serve over ice
