Currently sipping on a Paloma:

  • 1.5 oz Tequila (blanco)
  • .5oz lime juice

    I like tiki drinks.

    Painkillers are incredible. I’ll take 12.

    measurements:

    • 2 oz Dark Rum (preferably Pusser’s Rum, as it’s the traditional choice)
    • 4 oz Pineapple Juice
    • 1 oz Orange Juice
    • 1 oz Cream of Coconut *Garnish: Grated Nutmeg and optionally a pineapple wedge or cherry

    Instructions:

    • Combine Ingredients: In a shaker, add the dark rum, pineapple juice, orange juice, and cream of coconut with ice.
    • Shake Well: Shake vigorously until well chilled.
    • Strain: Strain the mixture into a hurricane glass or large snifter filled with ice.
    • Garnish: Generously grate fresh nutmeg on top of the drink and, if you like, add a pineapple wedge or cherry for decoration.

      • .5 oz Demerara syrup (1:1 sugar to water) Shake on ice and strain into crushed ice. Garnish: pineapple wedge and frond

      Artichoke Hold:
