I'm not sure the brands matter much on anything but the Rum. Aren't orgeats and curacaos pretty much all the same? I favor St. James Martinique rum (always more than the recipe calls for) and either Lemon Hart Demerara (I know it's unorthodox, but good) or Cruzan Light. Or napthol, after a few rounds. As for decor, mint & lime work for Trader Vic, so that's enuff for me.
