Servings:
6 to 8 servings
Ingredients
2 lemons
1 pink grapefruit
6 ounces Demerara sugar
4 chamomile tea bags
One 750-ml bottle single-malt whiskey (preferably Westland American Single Malt Whiskey)
6 ounces citrus syrup
3 ounces fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Bittermens Boston Bittahs
Lemon wheel, for serving
Directions
Make the citrus syrup: Using a vegetable peeler, remove the entire peel of the lemons and grapefruit, and mix thoroughly with the sugar. Let sit for 1 hour in a nonreactive bowl. Add 1½ cups boiling water, stir to dissolve all sugar, then strain to remove citrus zest. Bottle and chill. Makes about 1 cup.
Make the punch: In a small saucepan, bring 4½ cups of water to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the chamomile tea bags and allow to steep for 4 to 6 minutes. Strain and chill completely.
Combine all ingredients and refrigerate before serving in a punch bowl with one large ice cube to keep the liquid cold. Garnish with a lemon wheel.
