Last night:

I was feeling tired of my usual drinks so I attempted this Planter's Punch recipe, from "The Essential Cocktail" by Dale DeGroff. It's not a bad book.

3/4 oz Myers
3/4 oz light rum
3/4 oz curacao
1/2 oz falernum (didn't have on hand boo - trying to fix this today)
1 oz simple syrup (seems heavy to me)
3/4 oz pineapple juice
3/4 oz fresh oj
1/2 oz lime juice
dash of grenadine
dash of Angostura bitters

It was ok. I doubled the recipe and didn't want to fool with decimal points so it ended up being rather rummy. Probably will go back to the fog cutter this week.

Now I'm drinking a rank iced coffee.
