Had My First (real) Painkiller The Other Night, And Wow! - Tiki Drinks and Food

I handed them a printed menu from Chicago's Three Dots & a Dash (a bartender gave it to me a while ago, because I bought a bunch of mugs, and as I'm a good tipper!), and said "I can make almost everything on here." The Dead Reckoning and Zombie were both well-received... but the Painkiller was the big hit of the week, and the half-dozen or so that I made used up the last of my Pusser's. I used Pusser's traditional recipe, as found on their web site. For coconut cream, I used "Coco Real" in the squeezy tube, heating it in the microwave for twenty seconds or so to make it flow. I know some consider it inferior to Coco Lopez, but the texture is easy to work with and it lasts for months.
