Now to Kill Devil's point, the Jet Pilot is fantastic. I use the same recipe that is in Sippin' Safari and its a REALLY solid drink! I don't know if another Jet Pilot recipe is even worth trying - a little spice and very dark. With curiosity I'll probably try Blair's version, which not surprisingly uses the Blackstrap rum as they seem to really favor it there at Hale Pele. I find it amusing for some reason.
