How to Make Pacman Punch
- **Juice Preparation:** Juice 10 kalamansi limes (or a combination of 5 limes, 2 lemons, and 3 oranges). If using a combination, ensure you have approximately 1 cup of total juice.
- **Kalamansi Syrup:** In a small bowl, combine the zest of 5 kalamansi limes (or the equivalent zest from your citrus combination) with 1/2 cup granulated sugar. Muddle gently until the sugar absorbs the citrus oils.
- **Dissolving Sugar:** Add 1 cup of boiling water to the sugar and zest mixture. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- **Strain & Combine:** Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve, discarding the zest. Pour the syrup into a large pitcher or punch bowl.
- **Adding the Booze:** Add 1 cup white rum, 1/2 cup dark rum and 2 cups of pineapple juice to the pitcher.
- **Mixing the Punch:** Add the freshly squeezed citrus juice to the pitcher and stir gently to combine.
- **Taste & Adjust:** Taste the punch and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar if needed, or more citrus juice for extra tartness. For a less sweet punch reduce the amount of sugar or increase the amount of citrus juice.
- **Chill & Serve:** Chill the punch thoroughly for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. Serve in a punch bowl with an ice ring or in tall glasses filled with ice. Offer extra rum and/or seltzer on the side for guests to customize their drinks.
