Punch a La Noix Coco image

From pina coladas to rum and coconut water, the fruit of the coco palm seems a natural pairing with the elixir of the sugar cane. From French Polynesia, here is a different twist on the rum and coconut theme-one that can be made in a larger quantity than given and kept on the sideboard or the bar until ready to serve. It only gets better.
