I love those Plantation rums..... Hurricane Hayward will be sharing the recipe on the Atomic Grog blog soon. It's definitely in line with something the Mai Kai would have on their menu. I might tinker with it a bit to get it exactly how I love it and if I make changes from his posted recipe I'll let you know.

TP Tiki Phil Member Vacaville, CA Joined: May 11, 2015 Posts: 55	TP Tiki Phil Posted posted on Sun, May 17, 2015 7:15 PM I'm a newbie tiki-phile but I'm doing pretty good with the Trader Vic's original Mai Tai. Made one just now for my wife and she says it came out almost as good as Trader Vic's. I'm having trouble getting that dark brown color but the taste is pretty close. I used: Myers Mt Gay Orange Curacao Orgeat juice from 1 lime 1/4 oz lemon juice (bartender at Trader Vic's gave me that tip if the limes aren't that juicy) Half a lime shell and of course fresh mint from the backyard for the garnish

We were all new once, except for one or two here who I'm certain popped out of the womb with a cocktail in one hand and a carved tiki in the other.

When I first read it, the idea kinda turned my stomach...pineapple juice and Kaluha??? But then I made one. Pleasantly surprised how well the flavors worked together. Anyway, Sams Club has gotten in some champagne mangoes in. My wife is from the Philippines and says these taste closest to the ones she ate there. Made a Banaquiri (banana daiquiri) per the recipe in "Introducing Original Polynesian Tropical Bar Recipes" and chopped one of the mangoes up and threw it in the blender with it.

Navy Grog Latitude 29 (signature cocktail) Lapu Lapu bowl. Bought the last Bosko bowl for my brothers 30th. I forget but it was tasty :) This was amazing! Ultra hook up at Latitude. This is my to go Painkiller with Smith & Cross. It is on the menu which is actual full sheets of paper (8.5x11). This is like a 1 liter drink, to put it into perspective, ever get to go curry from a Thai food place? HUGE! Then over to Cane & Table... Trinidad Green Swizzle & a Plantation Pineapple Guadolupe Ti Punch... Spendy because of the extinct rum they used but quite tasty! Then over to Tiki Tolteca... Jungle Bird with Smith & Cross. Broke my phone here :( then over to Port of Call... Port of Call (signature drink)

A AdOrAdam Member Wolverhampton, UK Joined: Jun 16, 2013 Posts: 630	A AdOrAdam Posted posted on Sat, May 23, 2015 3:13 PM Conga Pete - I have followed this suggestion for how to make Pearl Diver mix & it worked better than my earlier attempts - I've tried out a couple of versions of the Pearl Diver now, I'm not a fan of either (too soft). I tried the Skin Diver last night, likewise a soft drink, the bitters adding a little spice. But I've got to get me some of those glasses! Tonight I had a Pearl Diver (to see if my mind had changed), Mrs AdOrAdam had a Hawaii Kai Treasure: I also made a Atomic Grog's Mutiny with Kohola Bay - I'd made it before with the S&C / El Dorado 12 sub but hadn't been a fan, it's better with Kohola Bay. For the last few weeks I have been drinking Boulvardiers like they've been going out of style (1.5 bourbon / 0.75 vermouth / 0.5 Campari / plenty of orange bitters, over ice) - a great drink if you like whiskey & Campari. Otherwise I've been experimenting with my own tiki drink recipes - it's easy to knock together something 'ok' but harder to make something 'great'! The latest effort: Kkocka - I likewise got some bar mats a while ago, a good purchase that avoids condensation drips :)
