Drinks of Hawaii also comes in a 3rd edition with a different illustrator (Rixford)that isn't as playful this one, it has over 100 tropical drink recipes but what I find disturbing is an ad on the inside cover for a drink called a "Spanish Bull" this is 1/2 tomato juice and 1/2 Schlitz Stout Malt Liquor, yuk, on the back is a quote by Don Ho saying "May a flock of mynah birds fly slowly over you Mai Tai!" not sure how to take that one.

I was just now looking at the recipe for Cooler Pants. How many people remember that "Uncola" is 7-Up?

Just got a copy of this book off eBay for $9 which included postage.
It is great fun and really has a great retro vibe.
Thanks for the recommendation.
