I'm talking same amount of Rum (as an example) but great difference in effect felt. Case in point, a QB Cooler (Grog Log version) which is one of my favourites, has a strong personal knock out effect. Just tried a Royal Hawaiian Mai Tai (from Remixed) for the first time...3 ounces of rum just like the Cooler but a much milder intoxicating effect. Which leads to my theory...do the various mixers / juices / ingredients shape or transform the intoxicating effect of a drink?
