First of this season's Michigan apple cider on ice with 1 1/2 oz. of Coruba dark rum. Simple? Yes. But so very very good.

I harvested my bumper crop of Cayenne peppers just before our first hard frost of the season, and I thought they'd make a damn fine cocktail garnish, so here's my South-of-the-Border riff on the classic Aku Aku Lapu from the Bum's Intoxica!:
1 oz. Fresh Lemon Juice
1 oz. Fresh Lime Juice
1 oz. Unsweetened Pineapple Juice
1 oz. Orange Juice
1 oz. Falernum (Fee Bros.)
1 oz. Appleton V/X Rum
1 oz. Presidente Mexican Brandy
1 oz. Patrón Silver Tequila
1 oz. Pisco Capel Reservado
Shake with crushed ice, and pour into a large snifter. Fill with more crushed ice. Garnish with a large Cayenne pepper speared and cracked to allow the spicy aroma to permeate the drink.

1/2 oz passion fruit juice
2 1/2 oz orange juice
3/4 oz fresh lemon juice
1/4 oz fresh lime juice

Just finished a lot of beer, from having performed at Harpoon Brewerys Octoberfest, which was followed up by a shrunken skull, and a jet pilot, both Mai Kai style.

I have a bottle of St. Elizabeth Allspice Dram and I wanted a simple recipe for a rum drink. so I found this one in the Grog Log. It is good and tasty.
Jasper's Jamaican
1/2 oz fresh lime juice
1/2 oz Pimento liquor
1/4 tsp. sugar
1 1/4 oz gold Jamaican rum
Dissolve sugar in lime juice, shake everything well with ice. Strain into a cocktail glass.

That drink by Mr. BaliHi looks just like a drink they serve in Nevada called "the inguano".
1/3 Hot pepper infused tequila*
1/3 good margarita mix
1/3 orange juice
Fill a double old fashioned glass with crushed ice, garnish with a pickled cayenne on a decorative tooth pick or plastic sword.
*Grill about 6 Jalapenos (or hotter peppers to taste) and add whole to a good 750 ml bottle of tequila.

The Rum and Coke thread made me crave a Cuba Libra, so that's what I'm drinking in this sunny Tuesday afternoon, while writing travel blurbs
