Palapala's postcard and the excellent "Dirtnapple" drinks :down:

My "pineapple princess", sipping her Dirtnapple, on our boat, the 'Leaky Tiki' :down:

DIRTNAPPLE, by Palapala

1/2 oz. lime juice
1/2 oz. passion fruit syrup
2 oz. pineapple juice
1 oz. coconut rum
1 oz. amber rum
Shake with ice, strain into ice filled glass, and sip, while listening to Annette Funicello sing, 'Pineapple Princess'.

I used Cruzan Coconut and Cruzan Estate Dark rums, and Finest Call Passion Fruit Puree. Very fruity and tasty; we both loved them. The first drink was gone too soon. But since I'm a fan of darker rums, when I made our second round, I had to try mine with Coruba dark Jamaican. Not so good, in this case; Palapala's original recipe was better.

We'll try the 'Big Island Ice Tea', as soon as I buy some Licor 43. OK, just need to get a postcard to send my recipe... if someone new wants it, say so. Otherwise, it goes to Brice!
