Any idea when (if?) this is rescheduled?

Sorry to resurrect this. I think there's probably a newer thread but the search function is spotty.

Is the Atomic Grog gone? I went to look up a Mai Kai tribute recipe and it looks like every page is "Not Found"

Jim posted on FB that he's moving to a new host service. It will be back soon.

Whew! Glad to hear!

After a looooong pause, I hope to again update this thread with the relaunch of the Mai-Kai Cocktail Guide (see tease below).
