The recipe is okay, however, my mother (a Trini) uses (3) cans of Evaporated Milk and 1.5 cans of condensed milk. The recipe listed above can be overly sweet with the amount of condensed milk stated.

This was fun to try, but definitely not a favorite. I think the aromatic bitters threw it off too much for me, although my guests didn't complain. They just stated they preferred my usual homemade eggnog (Christmas Creamy Eggnog), but were pleased to try this anyway. We'll stick to the traditional eggnog from now, but thanks for offering a taste of Trinidad, anyway!

This recipe is "alright", but we, IN TRINIDAD, usually use less condensed milk & 2 cups of rum to every 6 eggs (they chemically cook the eggs to preserve the drink). Also, Ponche de Creme or Ponche Crema doesnt mean "Punch WITH Cream", but "Cream Punch" or literally "Punch of Cream", as some people do call it.

i usually buy the store bought kind but, homemade is much better. my husband and i visited trinidad a couple times and had this. it's excellent! thank you so much for posting this recipe. it will taste a little too sweet and thick at first. but after you chill it and add plenty of ice it taste perfect.
