Greetings.
After making my first headhunter last night, I am looking to find alternate recipes. I used the recipe that is on every web drink site; the one that calls for massive quantities of 151 rum and spiced rum. Also, beer and papaya juice is called for. I wasn't thrilled with the outcome, and since I was using all fresh juice, there was a real need for some sweetness.

The only other recipe I found was in the 'Bartenders Black Book', and that one was very different. It also looked pretty generic. Interestingly enough, the Headhunter is notably absent from all the other bartending books I found at Borders.

I have not seen the other books like Intoxica; I plan on tring to find those as time and money permit. However, for now, I'd just like to find a decent Headhunter recipe, if such a thing exists.

Thanks!
