In a pitcher, muddle the sugar cubes with 3 ounces of the club soda until the sugar is fully broken up. Add the remaining ingredients (except the remaining club soda) and fill the pitcher three-quarters full with ice cubes. Stir until cold, then strain into a punch bowl over 1 large block of ice. Top with the remaining 3 ounces of club soda. Garnish with several grates of nutmeg and serve with a ladle and punch glasses.
