Oh, my!
This is a thing of beauty. Granted, I'm more of a fan of Vic's, which is sublime, but this supposed pre-cursor is a real delight.
What I'm loving about this drink is that the sweetness is minimal at most, and the rum blend really, really shines through in a delicious symphony of booze. Man, I'm loving this damn drink.
(Granted, it may be perverse to put a Don drink in a Vic glass, but this is the only double old fashioned I have.)

Just tried this one too. I like!!!

I just realized why I like this one so much. The recipe is very similar to the Test Pilot (except for one key ingredient) another one of my favorite drinks!

A Donga Punch. I can't say I dislike it, however the Martinique rum in it is quite dominant. I wonder if it would taste better using a different brand.

"Fogg Cutter" from BBB:Remixed... Portions of the OJ + Lime looked interesting (and had them ready)... Plus, I've had a bottle of Gin sticking around for several years and I figured the flavor would be covered up well...
The drink was great, though deadly!! Shockingly, I could get the Gin and finally found a gin drink I like... Go Tiki!
(can't till BB's next book)

Restless Native from "Remixed".
Damn, this is a limey sucker.
Ain't no way I'm getting scurvy, that's for sure.
Delicious... but I'm dialing back the lime a little on the next one.
Before that it was a Broken Ankle. I went out and got the Heering yesterday and man am I glad that I did. That stuff's great!

I'm having one of these;
Not really a big fan of beer to begin with, and this is certainly not my favourite, but I bought a case and gave half to a gardener in exchange for some logs from the trees he was cutting down. Now I can start my first large Tiki carving. Woohoo.

Three Dots and a Dash.
Though to be fair, that was actually 2 drinks ago.

Test Pilot, or you could call it Jet Pilot, Ace Pilot, Space Pilot or Astronaut.

Regular old Mai Tai...but with 5 Star Rhum Barbancourt instead of the Appleton/St. James combo. It tastes a lot more like the Mai Tai's that I've had a TV's for some reason. I always thought it was the limes, or curacao, or orgeat that made my drinks taste off, but now with Senior Curacao, Philibert de Routin Orgeat and good limes, they still never taste quite right. Call me blasphemous, but I don't think I'm a fan of the Martinique rum...

SCA's Kon-Tiki Guatemala Cooler - very similar to a Pina Colada - unremarkable.
