  • Straightforward juicy tiki-like easy drinking. Make it for your lightweight friends 2/3 ratios.
  • A nice, complex, refreshing drink. The S&C comes through but there's a lot more to it than that.

  • Cut the cinnamon syrup to 1/4 oz. and the pineapple juice to 1/2 oz. -- seemed like it would be awfully sweet otherwise.
