The Alchemist Punch is an ideal party punch for any occasion. It is an interesting and complex punch that brings a variety of fruits together with the herbal liqueur Benedictine. The honey and thyme are the finishing touches for this intriguing brew. Just remember to chill it for about 4 hours to allow everything to come together.
