M MrBaliHai Tiki Socialite Behind the Cheddar Curtain Joined: Jun 01, 2002 Posts: 1031	M MrBaliHai Posted posted on Sun, Nov 27, 2011 1:35 PM Stuft Shirt Mai Tai From Beachbum Berry's Remixed. I've had a lot of bad Mai Tais in my day, and this one, which the Bum claims "commits every sin in the bogus Mai Tai playbook," did not disappoint. I was particularly horrified by the inclusion of Sauternes, a rather pricey French dessert wine that's typically imbibed with Foie Gras. As I happened to have a bottle of 2001 Château du Violon Sauternes lying around collecting dust in the wine cellar, I decided to mix up one of these abominations, and did not spare the top-shelf rums, including 12-year Appleton Jamaican Dark, Martinique VSOP, and Lemon Hart 151 old label. My friends, it tastes as awful as it sounds, but I feel strangely at peace knowing that no Mai Tai I could ever order from this day forward, could ever match its sheer awfulness.

T thePorpoise Tiki Socialite Tampa Bay Joined: Jan 23, 2011 Posts: 1519	T thePorpoise Posted posted on Wed, Dec 14, 2011 10:29 PM I had one of those Sunday night and I think I was still hung over on Tuesday! right now- out of lemon so mixed up a Sidecar with lime instead. not the best marriage. So, threw in an ounce of Appleton Estate dark, a half ounce of Canton ginger liqueur, and a quarter ounce peach brandy. Don't know what to name the resulting elixir, but it's pretty good.

Lately though since I'm on a low carb diet, I've been a bit hooked on Coke Zero and Gosling's Black Seal with a squeeze of lime. That's pretty much my cocktail of choice until I get down to my goal weight ^_^
G gabbahey Member Denver, CO Joined: Jan 10, 2011 Posts: 257	G gabbahey Posted posted on Fri, Dec 23, 2011 10:07 AM Last two days it has been: Navy Grog - fresh lime and grapefruit. Ron Abuelo, Coruba, Lemon Hart 151. When I get back after Christmas I'll switch to Mara Amu and Rum Barrels 'cause I just got the correct mugs and haven't initiated them. I made the wife a lemon mint squash from Remixed and it got rave reviews - great non-alcoholic drink (she is due in April). Is it wrong that my favorite use of Lemon Hart is as a float on a mild white rum drink? Derby Daquiri etc? gabbahey [ Edited by: gabbahey 2011-12-23 10:09 ]

Next I'm gonna make a Mara-amu or Never Say Die, depending how much lime I have left.

I myself use the Kaiser Penguin method, but I hear there are others methods out there....

I myself use the Kaiser Penguin method, but I hear there are others methods out there.... I just put the butter and honey in a teacup and place the teacup in a pot and fill the pot with some water. (so the water covers to about to the middle of the teacup) Then I just heat up the stove and wait till the butter has melted completely, take off from the stove, and let cool to room temperature. (maybe a little bit above room temperature) I also mix it now and then while it's cooling, but I'm not sure if that matters. And at this point, of course add the rest of the ingredients. Then right before using it, swizzle it really well so it get's really smooth. Pour it in the shaker after everything else and dry shake, aka shake without ice. Then just add a load of crushed ice, shake it, and pour it in the glass. I do it like this and I never get any of those solids. [ Edited by: mamelukkikala 2012-01-06 19:58 ]

M MadDogMike Grand Member (8 years) The Anvil of the Sun Joined: Mar 30, 2008 Posts: 11036	M MadDogMike Posted posted on Sun, Jan 8, 2012 8:45 AM Dynamo, I made a Honolulu Honey a while back that included butter. I'm not sure what Kaiser's method is but I gave the rum and the honeybutter a good shake by themselves first, then the other ingredients, and then the ice last- no butter chunks.
