Jet Pilot (1951) Cocktail Recipe

⚛ A Classic Cocktail from the Atomic Age ⚛

 Ingredients:

    1/2 oz lime juice

    1/2 oz grapefruit juice

    1/2 oz cinnamon syrup (B.G. Reynolds' Don's Mix)*

    1/2 oz falernum (Le Lab Sirop Tiki 1930 Falernum)*

    1 oz dark Jamaican rum (80 Proof Lemon Hart Demerara Rum)*

    3/4 oz gold Puerto Rican rum (Bacardi Gold Rum)*

    3/4 oz 151 Proof Lemon Hart Demerara Rum (Bacardi 151 Proof Rum)*

    6 drops Pernod

    1 dash Angostura bitters

    4 oz crushed ice

*All items in parentheses were the ingredients I used/Substituted(LCBO  Friendly)

Directions:

Put everything into a blender, adding crushed ice last, and blend at high speed for five seconds. Pour into an old-fashioned glass.

My Notes:

Though it shares most of the "Zombies" ingredients it is a much more balanced drink,one you could indulge in all night long.Initially I found it slightly too sweet but this perceived sweetness disappeared after a few sips when the acidity of the lime/grapefruit kicked in.

The Painkiller (Classic 1971 Cocktail) Recipe

The Painkiller is a Cocktail which consists of Rum, Pineapple Juice, Coconut Cream, and Orange Juice.
The cocktail was created by George and Marie Myrick of the Soggy Dollar Bar on Jost Van Dyke Island, British Virgin Islands, in 1971. The recipe originally had 1 ounce each of gold Virgin Islands rum and Barbados rum. However, this was later changed officially to use only Pusser’s Navy Rum.

There are 4 Official Painkiller Recipes.I have only listed the one below though you can make any variation by adhering to the ratio of the Pineapple Juice, ,, and Orange Juice is always 4:1:1. The amount of Rum varies according to taste. The following recipes are for Painkillers containing 2 ounces of Rum as their base, and the other ingredients varied, but always remaining as 4:1:1. The recommended recipe would be the Painkiller#2.

Ingredients:

    2 oz Pusser's rum

    4 oz Pineapple juice

    1 oz Coconut Cream

    1 oz Fresh Orange Juice

Directions:

Shake with Ice, and then strain into an Ice-filled Tall Glass. Garnish with a sprinkling of ground Nutmeg.

My Notes:

A Delicious tropical treat something akin to a Pina Colada.Very easy to make and would be a nice after dinner drink or a Sundowner.
