10. Ti’ Punch (Martinique)

Rhum agricole, Martinique’s distinctive variation on rum (it’s made from cane juice instead of molasses), is the main ingredient in this simple drink. In fact, the only other thing you’ll need to add to your ti’punch is some simple syrup (or falernum, or any other sugar syrup) and a slice of lime. Servers at many bars in Martinique will actually hand you the ingredients, and let you make it to your liking—just don’t add ice if you want to keep your good standing on the Isle of Flowers.
