What is it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Punch is a drink that mixes fruit juices with a sweetener, spices, and alcohol. Linguists believe that the English word punch comes from the Hindi word pa\u00f1ca which means five - a reference to the five essential ingredients in punch: water (or tea), spices, a sweetener, lemon, or lime juice, and alcohol (1, 2). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
