MR. MICAWBER'S FAVORITE GIN PUNCH

According to his great-grandson, Cedric, Charles Dickens ''loved the ritual of mixing the evening glass of Gin Punch, which he performed with all the energy and discrimination of Mr. Micawber.'' You may recall that, in ''David Copperfield,'' Wilkins Micawber is uplifted by a humble gin punch: ''I never saw a man so thoroughly enjoy himself amid the fragrance of lemon-peel and sugar, the odour of burning spirit, and the steam of boiling water, as Mr. Micawber did that afternoon." Although this is called a punch, note that it's a serving for one - but don't let that stop you from making it for company. Its combination of spirit, warmth and spice will bring to mind a hot toddy, and it's fragrant and flavorful enough to supplant the more familiar whiskey-based version - at least for a season.

Steps:

  • Juice 1/2 lemon through a strainer directly into a warmed, heatproof glass (like those used for Irish coffee). Add the sugar and honey, and stir. Add the cinnamon and clove. Fill the glass three-quarters full with water just off the boil. Stir. Add the Madeira and gin and stir gently with a spoon or with a cinnamon stick, if you prefer. Grate a little nutmeg on top.

1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon honey
Pinch ground cinnamon
1 clove
Water just off the boil
1 1/2 oz. Madeira
1 1/2 oz. London dry gin
1 stick cinnamon (optional)
Grated nutmeg

GIN PUNCH

We found this recipe in Jerry Thomas's 1862 How to Mix Drinks or the Bon Vivant's Companion, in a recipe for a single serving. It called for Holland gin-or genever, as we know it today-and was probably a very popular drink. The back story is that when planning our first End of Prohibition party we were searching for punch recipes that could be served in teacups. So we started going through books and shot a few ideas back and forth until we found papa Jerry's recipe. We replaced the genever with Plymouth gin, and with a few more tweaks we got it perfect. The decorative ice block adds a great visual effect.
