While looking at old cocktails books to see how they used calvados, I came across this recipe in Harry of Ciro's ABC of Mixing Cocktails (1927). I'd never heard of caloric punch, nor its Swedish alter-ego for that matter, but now I am intrigued...

Also, who the fuck was "Robert", and was that even his real name?

So many questions.
