  • 1 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 oz Licor 43
  • 1 oz Barenjager honey liqueur
  • 3 oz light Puerto Rican rum
  • 2 cups crushed ice

Pour everything in a blender. Blend at high speed for 5 seconds. Pour unstrained into a tall glass.

Here she it, FIVE STARS and more. Three sublime flavors combine for pure Polynesian Pop Potation Perfection. This is the drink The Lava Goddess herself brought down from the top of the volcano Kilauea after receiving the blessing from Kane. Lani Mea Inu!

18-Jan-2015 Puka Punch

  • 2 oz fresh lime juice
  • 1 1/2 oz orange juice
  • 1 1/2 oz unsweetened pineapple juice
  • 1 1/2 oz passion fruit syrup
  • 1 1/2 oz honey mix
  • 1/2 oz falernum
  • 2 oz light Puerto Rican rum
  • 2 oz gold rum
  • 1 1/2 oz dark Jamaican rum
  • 1 1/2 oz LEMON HART 151-proof rum
  • dash Angostura bitters
  • 2 cups crushed ice

Pour everything-- except Lemon Hart 151-- in a blender. Blend at high speed for 5 seconds. Pour unstrained into a tall glass. Float LEMON HART on top of d rink.

Here it is, the third FIVE STAR drink. Equal parts power and subtlety, the passion fruit syrup, pineapple juice, combination of light and dark rums, and LEMON HART 151 give this drink all kinds of flavor and complexity. It's a bit of effort to assemble but oh so worth it.

11-Jan-2015 Hot Buttered Rum

  • 2 oz dark rum
  • 2 oz Creme de Cacao
  • 8 oz hot water
  • pat of butter

Pour rum and cacao into a mug. Add hot water and butter. Muddle until butter completely melts.

Sounds pretty good on a cold Sunday afternoon in January, doesn't it? However, I didn't really care for it. Neither quite rummy enough, nor quite chocolate-y enough, and the butter just made it kinda "meh." Try this one only if you're really curious, or really cold.

04-Jan-2015 Orgeat Punch

  • 1 oz fresh lime juice
  • 1 oz fresh lemon juice

  • 2 oz orgeat
  • 3 oz spiced rum
  • 1 oz 151-proof Carribean rum (Cruzan or Bacardi)

Shake with crushed ice. Pour unstrained into a tall glass.

Lemon, lime, almond, spices, and the kick of 151. It's everything a lemon dr op "martini" isn't and more. Next time I'll make this with Seven Tiki spiced rum . All I had on hand was the Captain. Errr....someone gave it to me....yeah, th at's it...that's the ticket...
