As I have never been to the Tiki Ti but have followed in the forum the fuss and bother about this particular drunk. Last night I made this latest version (the ONLY version I've tried) with the following exceptions to the published recipe:

Passion fruit syrup - Used my own home made - the Bum's recipe using frozen pulp.
Gin: Used Beefeater London Dry - Barton's isn't found around here.
Vanilla Syrup: Used Fee's French Vanilla - it's what I have on hand
Orgeat: I used French Teisseire brand which I prefer above all others I've tried

Everything else remained as posted. NOW I understand what all the fuss and bother was about! It is a very well-blended, balanced and refreshing drink.
I've read most of the posts regarding this drink and certainly would like to know what the final word is on what was the actual "mistake".

Fantastic job, ickytiki!
