1934 What Shall We Drink by Magnus Bredenbek
Punches ^ Thoroughly shake to chill mixture and to dissolve the sugar. Now pour into eight tall, slender goblets equal portions and garnish each glass with a half slice of lemon, a shce of orange cut into halves and a quarter shce of pineapple. Fill glass with cracked ice until abouta half inch from rim. Afew raspberries, strawberries or whatever other berries may be in season, can be placed on top. Use straws or glass sippers to imbibe this refreshing drink. To make up enough for four, just divide the ingredients by two;if for two persons, use the same method of reducing the portions or make individually. To make more than eight, proportion the ingredients accordingly. BRANDYPORTPUNCH To one pint of brandy of any kind add two pints of Port wine and two pints of "gum," stirring to mix thoroughly. Now add cracked ice to your punch bowl and pour in two quarts of carbonated or seltzer water. Add a pint of hme juice,flavor with six tablespoonfuls of Arrack and the grated oily yellow skins of four lemons. This makes about 35 to 40 punch glass drinks. BRANDY WHITEPUNCH On the ice square in your punch bowl pour a quart of brandy and a bottle of white wine of any kind. Now add about four ounces of Curacao and stir until thoroughly mixed.

More or less can be made by simply proportioning the ingredients.
