Counting down the days to The Hukilau, and the opportunity to hit up the Cocktail Kingdom booth for the new Pearl Diver Glasses and Swizzle Cups. Might as well get some use out of the old Swizzle cups from eBay ...

In the cup: The latest and greatest 151 Swizzle tribute recipe (v.4) ...

last night I tried Adam's Boulevardiers, if you like Campari you will love this drink. I like both Campari and bourbon so I really enjoyed this cocktail.

I like that this drink is getting a few outings by the TC folk, I only 'found' it recently but its a firm favourite for me.

Here's a good NY Times article highlighting it :)

Had a few drinks tonight;

She had a beer followed by 2 tequila / passionfruit combos with different tequilas.

I had an (unsuccessful) trial of a home bar menu idea, a (successful) riff on the Mai Kai coffee drinks & a Navy Grog.

What about y'all?

Been dying to try out the Dunbar Aramis ring glasses I scored last week, so I whipped up a batch of cinnamon and vanilla syrup this afternoon, and made myself a couple of Pearl Diver Punches before dinner. Whoa! What a drink! That butter/honey/vanilla/cinnamon/allspice batter is a real mess to work with , but it tastes amazing. It only hit 60 degrees here in Wisconsin today, but after drinking a couple of these, it felt like at least 70...:wink:

I am drinking my first ever Fogg Cutter. Mmmmmm so good! How come nobody ever told me about this one?

HH
Hurricane Hayward posted on 05/31/2015

MrBaliHai: Very nice. I love the attention to detail on the straw through the leaf.

wupput: The secret is out. I actually prefer the Fogg to the Fog Cutter. Grogalizer.com users seem to agree. With 24 votes for both drinks, the scores are 7.9 for Fogg Cutter and 7.0 for Fog Cutter.

Speaking of the Grogalizer, tonight I'm working on an old Grog Log drink that didn't appear in Remixed. It will be featured on The Atomic Grog next week as the Cocktail of the Week ...

Beachbum Berry's Tahitian, featuring Barbancourt rum and served in The Hukilau 2013 official mug by Tiki Diablo. Complete with faux lava rock coaster and LED light.

Thanks. I didn't have any of the leaves currently under discussion in the Pearl Diver thread, so I just grabbed the first serrated-edge leaf I could find in my backyard. Apparently, it wasn't poisonous, because I'm still able to post to TC this morning...:wink:

In anticipation of the new symposium by Beachbum Berry and Brian Miller, "Brigands, Barons & Beachcombers: The Many Faces of Planter's Punch," coming to The Hukilau on June 13, I'm launching an updated tribute recipe (revealed here first) ...


The Mai-Kai's Special Planters Punch, now featuring Hamilton 151 rum.

Updated recipe: http://www.slammie.com/atomicgrog/blog/2011/09/15/mai-kai-cocktail-review-special-planters-punch-is-tropical-drink-history-in-a-glass/#tribute

TC is a place for family announcements right?

My little one has gone from this:

to this:

in only one year!

We have a family tradition of laying out presents the might before (bar optional):

If you've ever put together one of those cars, you'll be needing one of these afterwards:

Cheers all :)

With The Hukilau just five days away, and in honor of the arrival in Fort Lauderdale today of Christie "Tiki Kiliki" White, it's fitting to mix up Beachbum Berry's Kiliki Cooler ...

Stamford Raffles. Batavia Arrack, Jamaican rum, lime juice, Ango and ginger beer. I only had Jamaican ginger beer on hand and it dominates the drink a bit. Barritt's or even ginger ale would let the Arrack come through more, but definitely worth revisiting.

Heavy night of boozin' with a buddy. We sampled some of my latest acquisitations including Havana Club 3 year white, 7 year, Lemon Hart "original" and spiced, Koloa spiced, Ron Zacapa 23 and XO, then made SOS's, shared a Luau Coconut and Captain Vadrna's Grog with Koloa as recommended on 5 Min of Rum and each ended with a hefty pour of Zacapa XO which is currently my favorite rum of all time. Wish we woulda snapped some pics cuz it was a real nice time.

Had my first Uh Oah! at Trader Sam's. Wanted to have a Nautilus but the bartenders kept screaming. Went upstairs to Tambu & had several Backscratchers. Much nicer vibe plus love all those old huge tikis from the Polynesian of old. Not to dis Sam's but it's almost more Tiki up here..
