Hawaii Kai Treasure
Ahoy! Pardon my absence. I've still been drinking, fear not. Again we have a drink calling for honey as opposed to honey mix/syrup. There is also a call for gardenia blossom as a garnish. We have a gardenia but it isn't in bloom. C'est la vie. I bought a silk flower
Hawaii Kai Treasure
2 oz lime juice
1 oz grapefruit juice
½ oz half & half
½ oz honey
½ oz orgeat
½ oz curaçao*
1½ oz light Puerto Rican rum**
Heat honey until liquid. Whip with all other ingredients and 1 cup crushed ice in a blender. Pour into a grapefruit supreme glass or tiki bowl. Garnish with gardenia.
*Maxime Trijol Orange Liqueur
**Havana Club 3 Años
My notes are thus: Delicious and creamy. The Maxime Trijol really comes through. Tart. Disappeared in a hurry.
This was a fun and interesting drink but the rum was overshadowed. Ah well, I got to drink out of a cool bowl!
