Mocha Punch

Submitted by Tricia Foley

"I found this recipe in my mother-in-law's old edition of "Joy of Cooking" We made it for Christmas Eve this year. It is so delicious. Everyone loved it. I have kept the ingredients the same, but have updated the directions a little. Personally I did not add the salt, nutmeg or sweet chocolate. I used the Almond extract as opposed to the rum."
