M mamelukkikala Member Joined: Dec 18, 2011 Posts: 47	M mamelukkikala Posted posted on Fri, May 18, 2012 2:00 PM Big Bamboo. Made with Appleton 12 y.o. and Havana Club 7 y.o. Next one will be either Zula or Jet Pilot. I think I'm leaning more towards Zula, since I'm in the mood for something smooth and easy.
M mamelukkikala Member Joined: Dec 18, 2011 Posts: 47	M mamelukkikala Posted posted on Sun, May 20, 2012 8:53 AM Hayward's tribute to Tahitian Breeze. I didn't have creme de banana so I used some cheap banana liquor that has been lurking in the back of my fridge for over a year. I used only a teaspoon, just incase. And it was a good choice. There is still some slight "bad-booze" flavor in the background from the cheap liquor. But other than that, it's a great and unique tropical drink. And I think the bad taste disappeared once it diluted a little. This is a good one, definitely for those sweet tooth -moments. I'd really like to know how it tastes at the Mai-Kai. Hmm, I still have some lime juice left. Maybe I should try the Hawai'i-version too.

In addition to what's below, I have honey mix, banana, soda water & bittermens tiki bitters to work with. I'm thinking of starting with an Outrigger (lemon juice, honey mix (in place of triple sec), plantation 5yr) followed by slightly modified variants of Navy Grog, Pearl Diver or QB Cooler, hell maybe a Banana Daiquiri. I'm leaning towards the Navy Grog - decisions decisions

T tuhuka Member Joined: Aug 13, 2009 Posts: 11	T tuhuka Posted posted on Thu, Jun 21, 2012 7:17 PM Round 1: Navy Grog ¾ oz fresh lime juice ¾ oz grapefruit juice (squeezed red, all I could find - anyone use an orange instead?) ¾ oz soda water (Gerolsteiner) 1 oz honey mix (made with raw Manuka honey, over minimal heat) 1 oz light Puerto Rican rum (Cruzan) 1 oz dark Jamaican rum (Appleton Extra 12) 1 oz Demerara rum (El Dorado 12) I've just built up my rum collection over the last week, so am a bit new to all of this - but this is one mean beverage. I made with orange linstead of grapefruit last week and it was delicious too. (Last year my drink was the noa noa because I had to have only one rum on hand and I have a lot of mint growing in the backyard.) The Manuka honey is interesting, and the health benefits are appealing, but am looking forward to getting back to a more normal tasting raw honey as well. I try to eat raw and organic when possible and will be staying away from refined sugar syrups and "flavorings", using homemade raw honey mix exclusively as sweetener - I realize this limits me somewhat, but it's all good!
