Red Nosed Zebra’s as served at Trader Sam’s.Got recipe from some kind soul on this forum several years ago. Mahalo, you know who you are. Here’s a pic and the recipe. Btw, I use fresh strawberry puree and this time of year I keep a mason jar full of lemon/lime juice (50-50) in the mini frig next to my bar.

.5 oz lemon juice
.5 oz lime juice
1 oz Agave sweetner
1 oz Strawberry puree (unsweetened)
Shake for 10 seconds, pour into ice filled dbl old fashion, garnishwith mint and cranberries.

Revel (New Orleans) Queen's Park Swizzle! (Made by the one and only Chris McMillian!)

I unexpectedly (and happily) discovered Demerara sugar on the shelf while shopping at a big box store this past weekend. I snatched it up, made some rich Demerara syrup, and tried a Queen's Park Swizzle (using El Dorado 5) and Martin Cate's Henry & John (using my our spiced rum). Both were delightful.

Roosevelt Hotel (New Orleans) Ramos Gin Fizz!

Had a Black Magic and Mutiny last night ...

Juliette Kitchen (Newport beach, CA) - Hemingway Daquiri with Lemon Hart 151 (tasty!)
Stopped in at a local kitchen for lunch today. Not only do they stock Hamilton's Jamaican Black pot stilled, they also STILL have the "new" Lemon Hart 151 red label.

First drink was a Hemingway Daq. Usually made with Mt Gay, but they were out so he used Lemon Hart. I have to say, it was actually really nicely balanced. Had to use red grapefruit, but even so, it was highly drinkable.

Drink 2 was a custom creation of Glenfidditch, Cynar, and black walnut bitters (there was another ingredient but I forget what it was!) For a rum aficionado, there was a great complexity of flavor to sip for a bit.

I will revisit Juliette Kitchen for more libations!

In my hazy drinking state, I just realized the red label Lemon Hart is the "old" bottle from the most recent incarnation in the States. NOT the new one, which went to a yellow label. Wow, so this one's been on their shelves for a while. Still was tasty. Bartender knew it had been out of circulation for a few years and had just recently come back, so I assumed this was of the "new" stock. But no!

The Below Decks Angostura Sour Master!

Yesterday I started at Tribune Tavern for a Vic's Fix.

So delicious. I think I had four of them.

Then a block over to Longitude for a Mai Tai.

Also had their Black Tot Grog and Shrunken Skull for the first time - both were excellent. I think I like the Black Tot better than the Navy Grog.

Scopa East India Cocktail!

Navy Grog in honor of Mr. Sinatra.
