I just made Don's Beach Planter, page 17, and it was fantastic.I had all the ingredients except for the Christian Brothers Brandy. This drink got better as the ice melted, down to the last drop. Here is the recipe for those who don't have the book yet. Don's Beach Planter 1/2 oz.fresh lime juice 1/2 oz. passion fruit syrup 1 oz. unsweetened pineapple juice 1 oz. amber Martinique rum 1/4 oz. dark Jamaican rum 1/4 oz. Christian Brothers brandy ( I used E & J X.O Brandy) Dash Angostura bitters 6 drops (1/8 tsp.) Herbsaint Pernod (I made 4 drinks and used 1/8 tsp only for all) 4 oz. (1/2 cup) ice put everything in blender, saving ice for last. Blend at high speed for no more than 5 seconds. Pour into pilsner glass. Add more crushed ice to fill. From Don The Beachcomber's 1937. I hope you'll like it too. Enjoy
