Saba Spice
Saba Spice along with other specialty liquors such as; Beauperthuy Punch, Guavaberry, and Ms. Blyden were conceived at a time when the only hard liquor available was ‘White Rum’. White Rum was produced from Sugar Cane, and due to limited resources, white rum was the cheapest liquor available at the time. Since necessity is the mother of invention, the locals decided to utilize the white rum in other ways, by making liquors from various fruits available on the island. There is no record of when these liquors were actually produced, but many historians believe this trend began around the early 1800’s. From the early 1800’s to early 1900’s the liquors were mainly produced for holidays and family events. In the 1970’s upon the advent of tourism to the island, a revival in the production of Saba Spice began. Samples can be obtained at several gift stores and can be purchased in select quantities. It is a true delight when served over ice-cream or as an after dinner drink.

Guavaberry is produced in limited quantities due to the limited availability of the Guavaberries on the island. The Ms. Blyden liquor was abandoned after a bug destroyed the cactus plant, which produced the fruit that was utilized in its production.

Monsieur Beauperthuy who was mayor of Marigot, gained fame in the neighboring islands by introducing his Beauperthuy Punch. See recipe below.

Spiral the peeling from 10 limes. Scrape away any white pulp and drop the spirals into a fifth of rum. Set the bottle aside for at least a week. The longer the lime steeps in the rum, the better the punch.

For the syrup, combine in a heavy saucepan:
2 cups sugar
1 cup water
Stir these only until the sugar is dissolved. Then cook the mixture over a low flame, without stirring until a little of the syrup forms a soft ball when dropped into a cup of cold water. When syrup has reached the soft ball stage, remove it from the fire. It should be kept in the refrigerator when not in use. The rum and syrup are combined in varying proportions to produce Beauperthuy Punch. With more syrup it becomes an after drink liqueur. Less syrup and a tot of the rum produce a refreshing drink for any time of the day.
