The Aku-aku Zombie. Pretty sure this is a repeat, but in my defense, it's a good drink. Kevin -- [ Edited by: heylownine 2010-08-13 21:18 ] |

Last night . . . "Suffering Bastard" from Remixed. I've never been a drinker of Gin; maybe had one or two gin drinks in my life, but I decided to try it. I used Beefeater London Dry Gin, E&J VSO*P brandy, Rose's Lime cordial and D&G Jamaican Ginger Beer. I'll report back later . . with a photo. |

Decided not to wait until later to make a "Dead Bastard" (it's 5:25 P.M. here anyway) . . . so I dug out my passed-down-from-my-father "Mai Tai" mug . . . now referred to as the "Suffering Bastard Mug" mixed 1/2 ounce each of : Wild Turkey Kentucky Bourbon, Beefeater London Dry Gin, E&J V.S.O.P. Brandy and Virgin Island light rum - keeping all the other ingredients the same except for the ginger beer which cut back to 3 ounces. Now . . that's a good combination and the four different liquors blend together nicely and play well with the ginger beer. I'll be making more of these! I bet you feel more like you do now now than you did when you came in. GH [ Edited by: GentleHangman 2010-08-27 14:43 ] |

A Mai-Tai... BUT... with a rum I've never used in it before, and I'm having some interesting results. Picked up some Pyrat XO today because it's finally been knocked down to $20 here. For some reason, even though CA went with the $19.99 price tag almost a year ago, CO is just now catching up. So... made my Mai-Tai as usual, but split the "dark" portion with half Coruba/half Pyrat XO. Just enough to get some of that deep funk of the Pyrat. And you know what? This tastes closer to an Emeryville Mai-Tai than any other Mai-Tai I've ever made at home. Now, I know they don't use straight-up Pyrat... but whatever they use (their TV's Mai-Tai rum, only available at the restaurants, right?), it's got the same sort of funk to it. So, my rum mix tonight is 1oz Appleton Estate Reserve, 1/2oz Coruba, 1/2oz Pyrat XO. |

I'd never thought of inviting the Pyrat into my Mai Tai, but I'm giving the mix above a try this evening. Thanks! kevin -- [ Edited by: heylownine 2010-09-04 07:53 ] |

This combo is indeed pretty darn good. I don't know that I prefer it to a "1oz Appleton Estate, 1oz St. James Hors D'age" mix, but the Pyrat does give it an interesting "something different". Great suggestion. kevin |

It's all snakebites, all the time tonight. Samoan Fog Cutter with diner, then 2 Cobra's Fangs (Don's mid-century version), then a Sidewinder's Fang. Sure, the Sidewinder is pretty mellow, but makes a good 4th drink, especially with homemade passion fruit syrup. The seems to be as many Cobra's Fang recipes as Zombie recipes. I like the Grog Log edition, but the one I had recently at Trader Vic's really put the Pernod flavor at the forefront and the Grog Log edition was a bit more subtle. I might up the Pernod and drop the lime juice a bit next time. Kevin |

Conducting a scientific experiment, comparing the 1941 Q.B. Cooler recipe from "Grog Log" and the 1937 recipe from "Sippin' Safari" and "Remixed" (sorry, no photos). The winner? 1937 by a comfortable margin. It's amazing how much it tastes like a Mai Tai with almost completely different ingredients. |

Since my AC died and I live on Guam I had to make a special drink tonight to chill out with. So I turned my Olongapo Punch into an Olongapo Cooler by adding a bunch of ice. |
