Will Deadhead be for sale at Hukilau?
Is it for sale in Fla now?
I do want to buy some.

The thing is I got a whole Tiki drink book full of recipes That all
have way out ingredients.
And I have a pretty well stocked bar.
These people who have these rums I would think would want drinks people
that do not have tons of ingredients to work with.
Thus making their booze more easy for the average person to work with, use.

Congratz to the winners!!
I do want to try all of the drinks.

PS you can substitute Cap'n Crunch for Sugar Pops in my drink as well.

This too maybe my problem I just pour drinks, in more of a loathsome way.:)

Yeah, you won't be ordering this drink at the Applebee's any time soon. That's why the Derby Daiquiri became such a success. Every bar in America could make it. Check out David McCauley's recipe. It is easy to make and very tasty. It was the winner in our tastings.

"Jungle Fogg"

In a shaker add...
2oz deadhead 6 year cask aged
1/2oz Lemon Hart 151
1/2oz blue Curacao
1/2oz fresh squeezed lemon juice
1/2oz fresh squeezed white grapefruit juice
1oz fresh squeezed orange juice
1/2oz vanilla syrup (I used homemade)
1 & 1/4 tsp of Dons Mix (I used BG Reynolds)

Add 1/2 cup of crushed ice and shake thoroughly. Pour into high ball glass and add crushed ice to fill. Garnish with a long cinnamon stick piercing a quarter lemon wedge (pulp removed)

Still need the cinnamon syrup to make it, and vanilla syrup may also be obscure for the typical hi-ball bar.
