Palm Beach Cobbler

Yes, cobbler is indeed as much a beverage in the South as a baked, deep-dish fruit dessert topped with a biscuit crust, referring, no doubt, to an old English punch made with wine or liquor, fruit juice, and sugar. I’ve had cobblers made with rum and pineapple juice, and with gin and cranberry juice, but one of the most refreshing was this simple concoction served at a smart beach party in Palm Beach, Florida.
