Okay, me mateys: The following have confirmed:
The following are "tentatively" scheduled to enter the contest (I've heard through the grapevine or through one source or another, so, I apologize in advance, if I'm incorrect or if you did not have any intention of entering!) However, for planning purposes, if you are definitely entering a grog, please post your "AYE" or "NAY", not later than Wed. 12:00 noon. I've planned for 6 contestants, so I need to know ASAP as I'll have to buy more supplies and reprint ballots.
And just to recap, Martiki has suggested 40 taste samples. The cups I purchased are 3 oz., so samples of about 2-1/2 oz. should suffice. My drink is approx. 5 oz. (which is kind of small for a tropic drink), so I have to make more than the 8-12 drink ratio, 100 oz., is what I was planning on making, so plan your drink quantity accordingly. It's better if you pre-mix your entry and keep it in a container or containers. And keep in mind that you will have to pour from that container (a pitcher works nicely) If you need to store it, I will have an ice chest available in my room. If you need to mix a bit prior to the tasting, let me know, so I can make my room available. According to the Tropics, it looks like I'm in ROOM 140. Everything should be set up and ready to go, but of course, I'll need a little help with set-up, and Monkeyman has volunteered for a little crowd control, which we will need. Judging from last year, the natives get restless, so we should be ready to pour samples at 11:30 p.m. With some tried and true recipes and some original recipes, this grog contest should be quite interesting! |
