The recipe for Hannah Wooley Punch was originally published in 1672, making it a true old-school punch, and among the first punch recipes to be recorded on paper. Davide Segat, bar manager at London’s Punch Room, has taken this English classic—with a tip of his hat to nearby Hawksmoor Spitalfield, one of the first cocktail bars of the craft cocktail renaissance to bring the recipe back—and updated it with spicy Barolo Chinato. The resulting combination of old-school and new embodies the best flavors of the holiday season.
Many thanks to our friends at One Kings Lane for outfitting our holiday punches photoshoot, and to Prime Meats for allowing us to make a mess of your beautiful space.
