Thanks for the suggestions everyone!

So I shook up another Sidewinder's Fang tonight and I think I've got it down now. First, I reduced the orange and lime juice to 1 oz. each and the soda to 1 1/2 oz. Left the passion fruit syrup alone. It was still a bit on the thin side, so I upped the rums to 1 1/2 oz. each and that seemed to do the trick. Good to the last drop.

Oh, I also shook with crushed ice (instead of cubed) and added more to fill afterward. This got it colder and kept it colder longer I think. Less dilution.

Not sure I drank it any faster than usual--isn't tiki about taking your time? :wink:
