I found this;

"The drink: The Karate Punch. It’s sweet and floral, Nolan said, but guys drink it, too. “We call it a foo-foo drink with a punch,” she said.

What's in it:
1 ½ ounces apricot brandy
1 ½ ounces vodka
¼ ounce triple sec
½ ounce grenadine
3 ¼ ounce sour mix
orange juice, to top off

Ingredients of note: Apricot brandy gives this drink its floral and fruity notes. The shot of orange juice at the end provides fresh citrus.

One more thing: Several Ichiban drinks have Japanese themes, such as the sake-based Geisha Delight, the blackberry-infused Ho Tai’s Dream and the melon-flavored Sakura Cocktail. Each of these comes in an optional ceramic mug with shapes such as Buddha, Geisha Girl or Cat for an extra $4.25"

I have a feeling, though, that if you asked 20 bars that served this for the recipe, that you would get 20 variations. But, who knows?!?

Now, can someone find the Samurai Grog recipe?
