I have used the Grogalizer, yes! Thanks for the suggestion. Most of the time I make notes in the Total Tiki app, I make a lot of drinks from that. Or I do a Mai Kai drink from your blog. ;o) For the Grog Log stuff I put a spreadsheet together so I can track stuff--drinks I've done, ingredients I still need, etc. I'm looking at doing the Flaming Coffee Grog at some point this week, just to get it out of the way, since I don't really like coffee haha. 60 drinks down, 18 to go! I take pics of all of them, and at the end I'm going to put a slideshow together with an exotica song I wrote and recorded; perhaps I'll post it here when it's done. It's good to have goals. |

Made a Hell in the Pacific last night, from the Grog Log. I've got 12 more drinks to go of the 78 in the book; I started on New Year's Eve. Why bother with new years' resolutions like eating healthier or going to the gym, when you can make one that you're more likely to finish? ;o) |

Monkey Knife Fight Pale Ale... With a name like that, I couldn't pass it up. I was not disappointed. A good pale ale is somewhat rare today when everything is an IPA variation. |

Some highlights from our return to Disney World after 2+ years in hibernation. You gotta start with a Lapu Lapu at Tambu Lounge ...
As good as always. Simple but refreshing (and deceivingly strong). My favorite from the Tambu menu is always the Backscratcher (a riff on the Tropical Itch). It seemed a lot more passion fruit forward, and quite tasty ...
After dinner at Kona Cafe, it was time for Trader Sam's Grog Grotto and another reliable favorite, Uh-Oa ...
Orlando Tikiphile Jim Neumayer joined me in sampling the upgraded Zombie. My favorite at Sam's is much improved since my last visit with the addition of Herbsaint ...
The next evening, we met our friends from The Hala Kahiki Hideaway at Jock Lindsey's Hangar Bar. "Deetman" and I both enjoyed The Scottish Professor ...

Happy belated birthday, Jim. I visited WDW for several days in October 2019, and one of my favorite places was Tambu Lounge. I liked Sam's, but I just loved the whole vibe of Tambu; it really felt like I'd time-traveled to a 1970s hotel bar (or what I imagined it was like then, since I wasn't alive....) Aside from the Belle Vue at Boardwalk (which I enjoyed for its classic cocktails and old time radio), Tambu was the only lounge I visited twice. Right now I'm finishing a Tiki Puka Puka, utilizing Grog Concentrate

My rum club, Austin Rum Society, is having a session with Privateer in a few weeks so I tested out a New England Daiquiri (2 oz Privateer, 3/4 oz lemon, 1/2 oz maple). Wasn't bad but I won't rush to make again.
Followed that up with an Ancient Mariner/Navy Grog and a (blasphemous, I know) Old Fashioned (w/ Old Forester 100), but failed to take photos of either. |

Trying out a new frozen passion fruit pulp. Very good results so far. The Demerara Cocktail was delicious.
It also worked great in a Puka Punch ...

I found that brand a year ago and made my first passion fruit syrup using the recipe in Minimalist Tiki. I really enjoy it and prefer using Demerara sugar over white sugar. The only downside is I have to drive an hour to the closest Sprouts and put it in a cooler for the trip back. Actually, it’s time to stock up again…. |

A highlight of last night's monthly Tiki Trail Live online event was this very appropriate May the Fourth cocktail from Kelly Merrill of Trader Sam's: The distinctive (and delicious) Who's Scruffy Lookin? features a unique combination of agricole rhum, coconut ceam and blue curacao. Forget "blue milk," this is the perfect fortification in any galaxy ...
Kelly's recipe ... Fresh lemon juice 1oz Cream of coconut 1oz Blue Curaçao 0.75oz Dark Rum 1oz Agricole Rum 1oz Light Rum 0.5oz Apricot Liqueur 0.25oz Blend with 8-10oz of crushed ice and pour into your glass, not mug. No point in blue milk if you can't see it! [ Edited by Hurricane Hayward on 2022-05-04 20:30:58 ] |

Had a party at work today to celebrate one of our computer systems achieving the Exaflop performance threshold. They had one of our local breweries whip up a custom IPA called "Exahop" in a special can to commemorate the occasion. The can reads: "The Beer of Geeks, Geniuses, and Gurus". Not sure where I fall on that spectrum, but after drinking a couple, I'm definitely leaning towards "Genius". The taste? Not bad, but I'm not really an IPA fan. |

A traditional 19th century punch, demonstrated by David Wondrich at The Hukilau last weekend. I paired three different Jamaican rums with the oleo saccharum (lemon peel and sugar) that we made during his class, plus fresh lemon juice and nutmeg. Delicious!

Stopped at Sprouts Farmers Market in Longmont, CO today and discovered after the fact that this brand was buy one, get one free, which was a very pleasant surprise. Not sure how long this sale might be going, or if it's on a national level, but here's a heads up for anyone near a Sprouts and wants to get this great passion fruit. |

Not a "tiki" cocktail, more a Caribbean cocktail. I actually got this recipe from an old postcard for the Jai Alai Palacio in Tijuana. Whipped up a couple of these on Sunday and it's mighty refreshing on a hot summer day. The Jai Alai Special 1.5 oz Havana Club Especial 1 oz Creme de Cacao 1 oz Lime Juice 2 oz Orange Juice Shake well and pour into a tall glass. [ Edited by arriano on 2022-06-29 13:18:12 ] |

I couldn't resist the July Fourth sale and added more Trader Vic's glassware to the collection ...
They were christened with with two simple Vic's classics: Siboney (dark rum, lemon, pineapple juice, passion fruit syrup) and the Trader Vic Cocktail (dark rum, lime juice, simple syrup). |
