I just polished off a Mai Tai made with Clement VSOP, Appleton Estate Extra (12 yr) and Clement Creoloe Shrubb.
It was rather tasty.

Halekulani Cocktail with Okolehao
A very odd tasting liqueur that makes me even more curious about what the original stuff was like. Straight, it has a not-so-pleasant note of baby powder (seriously) that thankfully, the cocktail subdued.

By right now, I'm going back a few hours, but last night I procured the following spirits:
- Applejack
- Port
- Sherry
- Coffee brandy
- Green Chartreuse
- Bol's Cherry Brandy (no Cherry Heering in stock)
...which I needed to make the following drinks from BBB Remixed/Tiki+:
- Hawaiian Room (Very lemon forward in an off-balanced way. Not a fan.)
- Singapore Sling [~original version] (If this is the origianl, I can see why they changed it. Just hideous IMO.)
- Paradise Cooler (Surprisingly good. The small amount of cherry cough syrup...errr brandy actually improves this drink.
- Pago Pago Cocktail (Makes me happy I bought the 375ml bottle of Chartreuse. Ugh.)
- Mr. Bali Hai (I can see why folks like this one so much. Now all I need is the proper mug.)
I sure am having fun working my way through each recipe in the Tiki+ app! 88 down, 59 to go (I think)!
