Derek, it's watching videos like these that make me want to take out a home equity loan to finish my basement into my very own tiki bar. Then stock it with every bottle I can find.

Considering pusser’s rum tastes like you distilled a brown paper bag, any other rum is an upgrade. That stuff is the southern comfort of rums

Whoa, that Sonando is out of this world. The grassiness of an unaged cane juice really lifts what could be a heavy drink. Thanks for sharing that recipe--going to be a new favorite.

The Sonando with cachaça was amazing, and then i made it again with Rum Fire instead of W&N, and that was really good. PKNY tomorrow

Just tried making the Sonando, but using Rum Fire for the overproof and 1.5oz of Barbancourt Haitian Proof for the cane juice rum and it was absolutely phenomenal.

These sound good, but still stand by my variation - 2 oz Plantation Pineapple rum, 1 oz dry curacao, .5oz lime juice, 4 oz pineapple, 1 oz coco real coconut cream, barspoon allspice dram, 5 drops saline, dust w fresh nutmeg.

0.4 0z Pineapple Juice is very specific and not a usual spec. Is that a typo? If not a typo how are you measuring it? 12 ml in a Graduated cylinder or eyeballing 1/2 oz (minus)

I usually like it with 2oz pineapple juice. 4oz is waayyyy too much for me 2oz Pineapple Juice 1oz coconut creme 1oz Orange Juice 2/3/4 oz Rum (split between whatever rum I fancy) Nutmeg garnish Sometimes angostura bitters for richness My standard way of making it

GREAT video ! Fan of the modernized tiki cocktail format. More please. We tried the Sonando and PKNY today. PKNY was fantastic, but the Sonando was the test department’s (wife) favourite. The Lime, Passion fruit, Vanilla and Wrey & Nephews is a magical combo. Highly recommend this.

Sonando sounds like a play on the classic (nonalcoholic) drink Morir Soñando (die dreaming), which is i think Dominican and combines orange and evap/condensed milk maybe.

I'm a Newey in Tiki. I'm really fascinated. One thing in don't understand yet,is all rum varieties. I get it , it's a huge category, but still, I'd love a video about what makes a rum being in one sub- category or other, basically Id like to understand how sub one for other rum , even knowing it's not exactly the same. Great channel, thanks!!

Hey Derek - are you using fresh juiced OJ in this? Im curious if a high quality store bought OJ could hold up in these cocktails the way a fresh juice would. Im going to make the Sonando later today!
@makeanddrink2 ай бұрын
I don't have a strong preference. I just use what I have on hand but often it's store bought.
@blindlemonlipschitz9122 ай бұрын
Love these variations. The painkiller is probably one of my wife's top 3, so it gets played here. I like them, but can only handle 1, because of the sweetness. Also a firm believer that though classic, pusser's is not the best rum for that drink. Always changing it up.

Thanks for the video! Is there any difference between a "Guyanese" rum and a "Demerara" Rum? It would be interesting to try this with El Dorado 5 or 8. At 3/4 an ounce with the mix of other ingredients I wonder if you would even notice a difference.
