4 eggs, separated
1 (125g/ 5 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
30ml (or approx 1 oz) rum
¼ teaspoon nutmeg or cinnamon, ground

Using a mixer, beat the egg yolks in a large bowl for 5 - 10 minutes; they need to be thick and resemble the colour of butter.
A little bit at a time, add in the milk, condensed milk, sugar and vanilla essence.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites to stiff peaks.
Slowly fold the egg whites into the rest of the mixture.
Add rum.
Stir gently.

You might try looking at webtender.com

You can browse through drinks by name or even by ingredient.

I just checked by category and they do have category for "punch/party drink"

Or you can even specify types of ingredients you happen to have on hand and it will return a list of recipes for drinks you can make with those items.

POUR A BOTTLE OF FRUITY WINE [sweet or not] OVER THE FRUIT. ADD A COUPLE OF TRAYS OF ICE CUBES AND A LARGE PORTION OF A TWO LITRE MOUNTAIN DEW..STIR EASY AND SERVE..PS YOU CAN PRE-FREEZE ICE TRAYS USING FOOD COLOR TO HAVE COLORED CUBES...LOOKS VERY NICE...
