Research, research, research! Still fine tuning a modern version of the 1934 recipe, here's what I've got:

-3/4 oz. fresh lime juice
-1/2 oz. Starbuck's cinn. sugar

• 11/2 oz. Appleton Estate V/X
• 1 1/2 oz. Cruzan Eastate Rum
• 1 oz. Bacardi 151 Rum
• dash of bitters
• 3 drops of Lucid Absinthe
• 1/2 oz. gredadine
• small spash of pineapple juice
• 6oz. of crushed ice
  Blend all for 5 seconds having added the crushed ice last.
  Fill chimney glass, add ice to fill glass and garnish with sprig of mint

Note that as a Lipidor user I've left out he grapefruit juice that would go with the cinn/sugar. And until I get to Illinois I can't find any demerara 151 rum.

Tastes pretty good to me!
