A Dark N Stormy, but instead of Gosling's I used Kraken. It isn't bad, but I like a Dark N Stormy better with Gosling's. Kracken is too sweet tor me.

Ever get distracted while mixing a drink and then you proudly serve it and it tastes horrible? Yeah, that was my uber-lime Mai Tai last night. I'll have to make more tonight just to make up for it!

Mai Tai, if only because I'm out of pineapple juice so I can't make a Blue Hawaii.

I invented this forty-five minutes ago:
Cup O' Kindness
1 oz each of bourbon, blended scotch, sweet vermouth, and orange curacao
1/2 oz each of orange juice, and cherry liqueur/cherry brandy
1/4 oz lemon juice (or lime)
1 dash each of orange flower water, Herbsaint, and vanilla extract.
shake over ice, strain into a fancy stemmed New Year's Day glass. Imbibe.
Happy New Year!

Well, let's see. First I had a Nui Nui. At the moment I'm sipping a Pearl Diver's Punch. (and realised straining isn't necessary, yay for not wasting ice!) It's pretty damn tasty btw. Next I'm gonna make a Mara-amu or Never Say Die, depending how much lime I have left.

May I ask how you prepare your pearl diver's punch (to prevent butter separation)? I myself use the Kaiser Penguin method, but I hear there are others methods out there....

I just put the butter and honey in a teacup and place the teacup in a pot and fill the pot with some water. (so the water covers to about to the middle of the teacup) Then I just heat up the stove and wait till the butter has melted completely, take off from the stove, and let cool to room temperature. (maybe a little bit above room temperature) I also mix it now and then while it's cooling, but I'm not sure if that matters. And at this point, of course add the rest of the ingredients. Then right before using it, swizzle it really well so it get's really smooth. Pour it in the shaker after everything else and dry shake, aka shake without ice. Then just add a load of crushed ice, shake it, and pour it in the glass. I do it like this and I never get any of those solids.
