Traditional Caribbean Peanut Punch: Perfect for the Holidays

Peanut punch is a traditional and popular blended drink made in the Caribbean. Each island has its own variation of this nutritious drink that is served primarily during holiday celebrations. They all carry the key basic ingredients of peanut butter, milk, condensed milk, and cinnamon. For the adults who drink, we spike with a little rum. Whether you're drinking the alcoholic or non-alcoholic version of peanut punch, you can never go wrong with this festive, creamy Caribbean peanut drink. Here is my recipe.

Caribbean Peanut Punch

You’ll need:

2 cups whole milk

4 heaping spoons of peanut butter crunchy or smooth

11 oz or 3/4 can of condensed milk

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp vanilla extract

*Optional: rum

Put all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Chill and serve with a sprinkle of cinnamon if you would like.

I can taste it already. I hope you enjoy it.
