What is the bartender tip for a Rum Punch?

Gold rum (Bacardi Carta Oro and similar) brings vanilla and body; white rum leaves the drink leaner. The 10 ml of grenadine sweetens and colors it — this isn't a gradient: it goes in the shaker with everything else. If the boxed juice is very sweet, drop 5 ml of grenadine or bump the lime. The catalog's Hakuna Matata also uses pineapple and grenadine, but with coconut, banana, and a layered build. The Piña Colada goes in the blender, with coconut. Strain over fresh ice: the shake ice has already diluted the drink.
