Bahamian Blaster Party Punch Recipe (2024)

Bahamian Blaster Party Punch Recipe: This large batch Caribbean co*cktail is the perfect boozy beverage for summer! Nice, cool, refreshing and delicious!

Party Punch

With July 4th just around the corner, it’s important to start planning your Independence Day menu. I like to keep the food and planning simple around the holidays… It’s easy to get carried away and stressed out, isn’t it?

Try to focus on 1-2 main dishes like a great burger recipe, and maybe an easy chicken recipe. Then select 3-4 simple side dishes that can be made ahead and do well sitting out for long periods of time. Don’t forget dessert!

Scroll down to find our side dish and dessert recommendations.

And finally, plan drinks for both the kids and the grown-ups.

I’m partial to our Lavender Lemonade, and POG Punch as non-alcoholic options. Yet for the 21-and-over crowd… You must, you must, you must make this Bahamian Blaster Party Punch Recipe this year!

Bahamian Large Batch co*cktail

This summery large-batch co*cktail was inspired by a recent trip Lt. Dan and I took to the Bahamas with friends. We took our boat each day and island hopped looking for the best snorkel spots, the best conch fritters, and of course the best Caribbean co*cktails.

One particular day we discovered a popular beachfront hangout called Pete’s Pub, famous for their “Blaster” rum punch.

The punch was kept in huge cooler dispensers and made with 3 fruit juices and six (6!) types of rum. It was dangerously divine and went down quicker than you could say Bahama Mama.

I couldn’t get enough of the Blaster punch, so fruity and refreshing. I also couldn’t get much out of the bartender, as to the exact ingredients. All she would tell me is that the Blaster included grapefruit juice.

I came home determined to mix and test rum punches until I developed my own copycat version called the Bahamian Blaster Party Punch.

What’s the Best Way to Serve Blaster Punch?

When serving Blaster Punch, you can opt for either a punch bowl or a drink dispenser that’s large enough to account for big crowds. I love the Viski Punch Bowl Set ($75 on Amazon) but this 3.5 gallon dispenser is another great option that costs a little less (around $55).
