Arrack.
Most
of the
arrack
imported
into
this
country
is
dis-
tilled
from
rice,
and
comes
from
Batavia.
It
is
but
little
used
in
America,
except
to
flavor
punch
;
the
taste
'of
it
is
very
agreeable
in
this
mixture.
Arrack
improves
very
much
with
age.
It
is
much
used
in
some
parts
of
India,
where
it
is
distilled
from
toddy
^
the
juice
of
the
cocoanut
tree.
An
imitation
of
arrack
punch
is
made
by
adding
to
a
bowl
of
punch
a
few
grains
of
benzoin,
commonly
called
flowers
of
Benjamin.
