So I make mine without making adjustments from Sippin' Safari. What I tend to use are as such:

Jet Pilot (Steve Crane, pg 130 Sippin' Safari)
.5 oz fresh lime juice
.5 oz store brand white grapefruit juice (I don't juice fresh oranges or grapefruit)
.5 oz homemade cinnamon syrup (preferably B.G. Reynolds', and the last couple years it's been Monin)
.5 oz John D Taylor Velvet Falernum (preferably B.G. Reynolds')
1 oz Coruba Dark
.75 oz Bacardi 8
.75 oz Lemon Hart 151
Dash Angostura
6 drops Pernod
8 oz crushed ice

Prepared in a top-down blender w/more crushed ice if needed. That's it! I will say that Hayward's Mai Kai Jet Pilot tributes are high on my list to try because I love this drink so much, but this is the drink that I know and the way it was introduced to me by Kelly at Trader Sam's.

Did mine pretty much exact except with Kohala Bay instead of Coruba to give it an extra kick. Just didn't work for me.

a Heyward tribute to MaiKai's Cobra's Kiss. excellent. (i used 1 oz Appleton Estate 12yo and 1 oz ED 8yo).

Forgot about this one. I've only made it once before and thought it was great. I need to restock fassionola and give it another go.
