5 Minutes of Rum
Notes on rum, a few minutes at a time.
Inspired by this post on Flickr, I made a Mai Tai variant with Lost Spirits Polynesian rum, Clement VSOP rhum, lime juice, orgeat, and Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao. The Polynesian rum is a different style than I'd normally use in a Mai Tai, but it's very very good.
Rated: Would Make Again.
I like the version published in Beachbum Berry Remixed a lot. But amping up the pineapple elements doesn't seem like a bad approach.
I'm ok with this research. New arrival: Liquid Intelligence by Dave Arnold.
A few quick questions with Jeffrey Morgenthaler.
“Uh, probably a menu full of brown, bitter, and stirred drinks with ingredients even I have never heard of. That’s something I can’t get behind. When did you guys all get together and decide to make drinking in bars a really miserable experience? Because I missed that meeting. I’m not saying you need a menu full of dumb drinks like mine, but for the love of god, please stop it with this shit.”
