Of course, you're welcome to come up with your own concoction, too. I'm honored to do it. One that's easy to make, and easy to get (cool) bartenders to make for us. One thought that comes to me right away: Almost all good tropical drinks have either fresh lime or fresh lemon juice in them. That limits the number of bartenders who can make the drink. Not too many will squeeze fresh juice. I don't think the official drink should necessarily have to be one that almost any bartender can make by request.
