Blue Curacao gives me a headache.
For real and for true.

It must be the dye, or maybe I was beaten up by smurfs when I was a youngin' but one Blue Hawaiian and I'm heading for the aspirin bottle.

Come to think of it, I wretch whenever I see Blue Man Group.

Anyway, I've made Mai Tais using Cointreau in a smaller amount than the curacao and it lifted the drink quite a bit. Triple Sec works in a pinch. Not so great though.

I just got a bottle of Conche Licor from the Kon Hemsbys and I'm going to try a Mai Tai made with that on Saturday. It's orange and vanilla in perfect balance with something else I haven't IDed yet.

Gonna try to create a drink with it too but that's another thread.

(PS - I want to punch you, poki'i, for getting to hang out at Forbidden Island all the time. You should create a drink there called "Jealousy" with midori, falernum and pernod)
