I had a light work day today, so I invented some variations on the Blue Hawaiian while working.

Electric Blue Hawaiian
Fill with ice
1oz Tequila
1/2oz Blue Curacao
Fill with equal parts pineapple juice and sweet and sour
Garnish with cherries

Mike says, "Tequila makes me thirsty. Good though."
Lankakitten says, "Tasty, with a kick."


Green Hawaiian
Fill with ice
1oz Rum
1oz Midori
Fill with equal parts pineapple juice and sweet and sour
Garnish with cherries

Mike says, "Wish the green was stronger."
Lankakitten says, "Fucking tasty."


Tropical Hawaiian
Fill with ice
1/2 oz Malibu Coconut Rum
1/2 oz Creme de Banana
1/2 oz Blue Curacao
Fill with equal parts pineapple juice and sweet and sour
Garnish with cherries

Mike says, "Awesome."
Lankakitten says, "Lightly sweet in a good way."


Red Hawaiian
Fill with ice
1 oz Creme de Noyeux
(it's a bright red liquer that tastes like almonds)
1/2 oz Spiced Rum
Fill with equal parts pineapple juice and sweet and sour
Garnish with cherries

Mike says, "Hmm. Missing something."
Lankakitten says, "Addicting."


As a reference, here's the original.

Blue Hawaiian
Fill with ice
1oz Rum
1/2oz Blue Curacao
Fill with equal parts pineapple juice and sweet and sour
Garnish with cherries

Sometimes I find that the pineapple juice makes the drink too green. Feel free to add 1/2oz Blue Curacao on top to get a really good blue (nobody is going to complain.)

Good times.

Question of the day: what's your favorite videogame?
