History

The Ti' Punch — short for petit punch — is the everyday drink of the French Caribbean islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe. Rhum agricole, a squeeze of lime and a little cane syrup are stirred to taste by each drinker, following the local saying 'chacun prépare sa propre mort' — each prepares their own death.
