1 ounce Coruba Dark Jamaican Rum
1 ounce Bacardi 8
1 ounce Pineapple Juice (100%)
1/2 ounce Orange Curacao
1/4 ounce Rock Candy Syrup
Juice from one fresh lime
1 large frozen Banana
Mix all ingredients sans banana into a shaker with 1 cup of crushed ice. Shake. Shave frozen banana into ape mug, using potato peeler or ice shaver, depending on availibility, but it must be fine, not chunks. Pour contents of shaker into ape mug. Garnish with a slice of banana under a marischino cherry on the straw.
Make as many as necessary to fill the mug.
The key to the banana is the shave it so that it stays frozen, yet be palatable, so that you can taste it when the drink hits your tongue.
Post script:
I'm considering a splash of banana liqueur. Just a small amount. Enough to give a hint of banana.
Don't worry, this is my one and only entry folks. Unless I stumble across something else.

remember the Ape Mug has a lid and a long "straw" is to be used....... maybe
a large shake straw would suck this bad boy up just fine........

OK ... I'm on my ass drunk, so this will probably take awhile but here goes:
1.5 oz. Goslings Black Seal Rum
1.5 oz. St. James Martinique Hors d'Age Gold Rum
3/4 oz. Llords or DeKuyper Banana Liquer
1/4 oz. Banana Syrup (Monin is best)
1.5 to 2 oz. fresh squeezed grapefruit juice
1 cup Crushed Ice
Shake all ingredients until shaker frosts; pour into mug and garnish with alternating banana slices and marischino cherries on a "Fez Monkey" swizzle stick.
Swizzles available at http://www.vintagevending.com/products_shop-detail.cfm?PID=1351&CID=177
Cheers!

Okay, so not many have responded to this, so I'm going to have to come up with a few new concoctures. Here's one Donn Beach style:
Ape Mai Tai
1 Bottle of Jamaican Rum, preferably dark
1 Bunch of Bananas
1 Crazy Al
The AL is to eat the bananas.
Aloha!
Expect more recipies in the next few days.

Okay, so, ever the one to want to mix new drinks, here goes:
MONKEY Mai Tai
3oz Appleton Estate Extra Jamaican Rum
3oz Mount Gay Eclipse Barbados Rum
1oz Banana Liquor
1oz Rock Candy Syrup
1oz Almond Syrup or Orgeat
Juice from one Lime
Pour ingredients into a blender, along with 7 ice cubes and a whole banana.
That should fill either glass pretty well. For the production model, float lime on top of the glass with a touch of 151 and a banana inside the lime, light and serve. Blow out before drinking for your own safety, though not necessary.
For the special edition mug, cut a 1" length of banana, place large straw through banana, sucking out the banana that is stuck in the straw, place in lid. Leave enough of the straw visible to allow consumption. Eat banana afterwards for nutritional value, and tasty goodness.

Here's my entry. I'm tryin' to stick to a mai tai since it's in the name. I'm not clear if this recipe is for the 10oz or 16oz mug, so adjust your ice accordingly.
The Monkey Mai Tai-
Juice from 1/2 lime
1/2 oz Orange Curacao
1/2 oz orgeat syrup
1/2 oz rock candy syrup
1 oz Cruzan Black Strap rum
1/2 oz Bacardi 8 rum
1 oz Cruzan Banana rum
3 oz Banana puree
Shake everything in a shaker with ice and pour it all into your super cool Fez Monkey Mug and enjoy!
I'm not including any garnish since you said their is a lid, but if there's not, then drop in a whole banana and a long parasol pick.
Thanks!
