All right guys, here's my take, after finally drinking one of these and trying to analyze it carefully.

Things that are definitely in the drink: Vanilla, soda, gin, white rum, dark rum, lime. Probably passion fruit syrup. Probably orgeat but not much, or a weaker variety.

Things I personally don't think are in the drink: coconut anything. And not too sure about the maple syrup. If there is pineapple or orange juice it is very, very little.

It is a light drink, exceptionally smooth, but does have some alcohol, I'd say about 2 oz or more based on how I felt after the first one. But the alcohol is incredibly well masked. I would describe the drink as light and sweet, not really very tart at all.

What I would like to do is make one with the recipe people here have decided on and sneak it into the bar to take alternating sips with a real one. But unfortunately I live about 40 minutes away on a good traffic day, so by the time I got into the bar significant dilution would occur. So my recommendation is that someone who lives close by do this. Mix one up and put it into one of those metal water bottles. There was a guy at the bar yesterday with a big bottle of tea, and Jim was handing out chips and salsa so it's not the case that they'll throw you out for bringing outside food or drinks in the place. Just be discrete. :)
