Tikicleen sent me a link to an old Trader Vic's Waikiki drink menu, which had a nice pic of the seahorse mug and a description, but it was too small to read. A quick search on TC brought this up (thanks Sabu!): http://www.tikiroom.net/gallery/albums/album01/aji.jpg It's big (1200 x 1600), so here's the relevant portion: For the hard of seeing: LIO O' KAI (Sea Horse) Passion fruit nectar and lemon juice blended with a touch of coconut syrup smoothed with vodka and a dash of liqueur. Served in a beautiful ceramic mug which you can take home with you. 6.00 (without mug 4.00) The only thing left to discover is what the liqueur was?
