Interested experiments, Bam Bam. My first "Mai Tai" was from a mix (not Blair's, the Trader Vic's brand which I found at a World Market four or five years ago) and it didn't excite me at the time. Then I tasted the real thing.

As for a Jet Pilot, the Bum's Sippin' Safari has this recipe:

1 oz dark Jamaican rum
3/4 oz gold Puerto Rican rum
3/4 oz 151-proof Demerera rum
1/2 oz lime juice
1/2 oz grapefruit juice
1/2 oz cinnamon syrup
1/2 oz falernum
6 drops (1/8 tsp) pastis
1 dash Angostura bitters
4 oz crushed ice

Put everything in a blender, saving crushed ice for last. Blend at high speed for no more than 5 seconds. Pour into an old-fashioned glass.
