last night-- looking into Belmont Stakes drinks, had half portions of the White Carnation; the Belmont Breeze; and the new Belmont Jewel. they really need to do a better job of coming up with a signature drink.

today, my cerveca perfecta-- Old Elephant Foot IPA, followed up with a CCB Jai Alai IPA...

already had a cold beer earlier dad-style after mowing the lawn (Jai Alai IPA).

Just finished a Navy Grog myself - the Luau version from Sippin Safari. Been revisiting several different Grog recipes this week.

Now enjoying my nightcap, a Caribbean Punch -- the early Donn Beach cocktail from Sippin' Safari with Sarsaparilla soda in it. It was the second drink I tried from Sippin' Safari when it first came out, and it's still a favorite that I like revisiting now and again.

Tukupi's Cup, John Tremain and Matt Anderson's winning Deadhead Rum Cocktail that I did not get a chance to taste during Hukilau. Very nice cocktail — probably the first cocktail I have encountered that uses both passionfruit syrup and maple syrup. Good use of one of the Pygmy mini-bottles they were handing out at the Deadhead booth.

Straight pulls from a bottle of Tanduay Centennial Rhum. I thought the rum was 17 years old when I bought it because it was made for the 1998 centennial of Philippine independence but checking on Tanduay's website I found the rum was distilled in 1976 and bottled in 1996 for the 1998 centennial. Tastes amazing.

Three-Dots-And-A-Dash two ways . . .

First-up, Plantation 5 yr & El Dorado 5 yr - very mild and will be quite drinkable for my guests tomorrow night.

Second-up, DePaz & LH151 - now that's what I'm talking about!

What's even better is I bought some Luxardo Maraschino cherries today . . . big splurge . . . while I don't seem to have a problem spending $30+ for a bottle of booze, $20 for a small jar of cherries just seems extravagant :)

Cheers!

If I'm in the mood for a Hawaiian-style Mai Tai, laziness will usually lead me to the Damon's version from Taboo Table. But if I have the energy to take on three additional ingredients, this is a good one.

Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon. I've not long in this country so I'm going through the expensive stuff as quickly as possible. Early this week I finished a 37 year old rhum. The things I have to do...
