My Mixes

As I said in my intro post,I’ve had a recipe published in Exotica Moderne:

Mix #13 Corsair Punch

2oz Appleton Estate 8yr Reserve*
2oz orange juice
2oz pineapple juice
3/4oz lime juice
3/4oz grenadine
1/2oz orgeat

*Or your favorite Mai Tai rum.

It’s a sweeter drink with plenty of vitamin C that goes well with pizza.

I’ve also come up with a few others,and have some experiments in the works. Here’s the ones that I’ve gotten to work so far.

Mix #4 Davy Jones Mai Tai

2oz Hamilton Beachbum Berry’s Zombie Blend
1oz lime juice
1/2oz blue curacao
1/2oz orgeat
1/4oz simple syrup

Mix #5 Funk #44

2oz Lemon Hart & Sons 1804
1oz lime juice
1/2oz Solerno blood orange
1/2oz orgeat
1/4oz BG Reynolds Demerara syrup

Previously posted under “The Other Mai Tais” below. The Davy Jones is an upgunned Mai Tai with creepy coloring,perfect for a Halloween party. The Funk #44 is a sweeter,funked up Mai Tai.

Mix #14 Pirate’s Parley

1oz Demerara rum
3oz pineapple juice
3/4oz lime juice
1/2oz apricot brandy
1/2oz orange curacao

Ok,this is a cheat. Tiki Bar TV had a drink called “Diplomatic Immunity” that used an ounce of Scotch. I’m not a Scotch drinker,so I subbed in Demerara rum,and it turned out good. Since I was pirating the drink,I ‘pirated’ the name(I give my drinks pirate themed names ‘cuz I’m silly like that).

Mix #15 Black Beard’s Ghost

2oz light rum
2oz orange juice
1oz lemon juice
1oz blackberry brandy
1/2oz orgeat

This has a berry-lemonade taste. Lemon juice messes with my tummy,so the orange juice and orgeat keep it citrus-y while taking the edge off the lemon.

Hope you like these!
