Guiness punch

Guiness punch
I have just done a search for artilces or recipes for this traditional Jamaican pick me up and found some perculiar results.
Below is a true Jamaican rastaman recipe from 1950s first developed in uk shared with me in the seventies after many late nights and has been a closely kept secret until now. This was widely used in shabeens both in U.K. and Jamaica throughout the last half of the twentieth century. i am not sure of the availability of lite ale worldwide or any alternatives.any sugestions greatly welcomed. The use of noutriment or vanilla essence as i have read is now used as some new poor substitute to the original. when you get the balance with the recipe below the blend of all the ingredients creates a unique flavour untainted with new trendy alternatives. Try it with the beetroot for a real cocktail treat!
