This handwritten recipe card for a coffee punch was found in a large collection of recipes, date unknown. This one’s a little confusing to me so if you’re familiar with it I’d love your feedback: is it half the bottle of 12 oz. Club Soda that you pour into the punch bowl, or is it half the hot coffee mixture? The directions aren’t clear to me…or is it half the hot coffee mix and you add the full bottle of club soda? Recipe is typed below along with a scanned copy.
