Boo Loo

1 sli Pineapple (in 4 chunks)
2 1⁄2 oz Pineapple juice
1 1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1 1⁄4 oz Honey syrup (1:1)
1 1⁄2 oz Gold rum (Puerto Rican)
1 1⁄2 oz Demerara Rum (80 Proof)
3⁄4 oz Jamaican rum (Dark)
3⁄4 oz Demerara Rum (151 Proof)
1 1⁄2 oz Club soda
Instructions

Blend pineapple juice, lime juice, honey syrup and pineapple chunks without ice in a blender until pineapple chunks are liquified. Pour this mixture, unstrained, into a hollowed-out pineapple (or some other less-interesting 36 ounce vessel) filled with crushed ice. Add rums and club soda. Stir vigorously until chilled. Garnish with a cocktail umbrella (of course) and your choice of tiki-inspired straw (or straws [plural] for the lightweights out there to share).

Notes

Getcherself an OXO pineapple corer for the ultimate in pineapple flesh extraction and tiki drink vessel-making. I'm not easily impressed, and yet this device knocked my socks and sandals off!

  • This is a no-brainer. You can tinker with the rums, forget about the fresh pineapple, etc. You can't screw this one up. Total crowd pleaser.

The flavor is okay, but it's very syrupy. I'd back off on the liqueurs and maybe add citrus.

Chris Day of Oakland's Kon-Tiki was the creator of this according to Educated Barfly. A pineapple Right Hand cocktail that is a touch sweet but very delicious. Bitters are chocolate, not Angostura though. Stir/strain/double old fashioned with big cube/lime twist.

  • There's a lot going on here. If you're chasing the cinnamon-grapefruit tiki combination, I prefer the Tuscan Toucan for that. If you're chasing something with passionfruit and Jamaican rum, the Hurricane and Lost Lake are great options. This drink, while good, hits an unhappy medium between other really fantastic tiki drinks. — ★★★

Sacred Monkey Forest

2 oz Batavia Arrack
1⁄4 oz Fernet Branca
1⁄4 oz Herbal liqueur, Green Chartreuse
1⁄4 oz Crème de Banane
1⁄4 oz Demerara syrup
2 ds Chocolate bitters
1 rinse Scotch (Smoky Islay such as Laphroaig 10 Year)
Instructions

Stir with ice and strain into a cocktail coupe rinsed with smoky Scotch.

History

I was inspired by the Krakatoa that I had at Drink as a patron back in 2008 and that I started making in the past few weeks on the other side of that same bar. To the house classic, I removed the Chartreuse on fire aspect and included the liqueur in the mix. Taking a page from Avery's Arrack-Ari, I added in a smoky Scotch rinse, and from the Banana Toronto, I dosed in some banana liqueur to mingle with the Fernet. For a name, I uncovered the Sacred Monkey Forest which is a park in Indonesia (where Batavia Arrack is made) where one can feed and interact with the monkeys at one's own risk (yes, they do and will bite).

Enjoyed this very much -- did not have Green Chartreuse so substituted Dolin Genepy with a little more than .25 oz to account for ABV difference, worked well!
