The Punch
The Chatham Artillery was organized in 1786, it is the oldest military organaization in Georgia. Their first official duty was to pay tribute at the funeral on General Nathaniel Greene. in 1791 the Chatham Artillery saluted George Washington with twenty six discharges from their field pieces. And these great occasions were celebrated with the Chatham Artillery Punch. It is unsure how this lethal concoction came about, but it is believed to have started as a mild punch made by gentle ladies, then one by one officers of the artillery sneaked in there favorite spirit, thus creating Savannah's most noted drink in two centuries.
