THREE DOTS AND A DASH

½ oz lime juice
½ oz orange juice
½ oz honey syrup
¼ oz falernum
¼ oz allspice dram
1½ oz Rhum Agricole Vieux ❽
½ oz Blended Aged Rum ❸
1 dash Angostura bitters

Garnish: three maraschino cherries, pineapple chunk
Method: Add all the ingredients to a drink mixer tin. Fill with 12 oz crushed ice and 4-6 agitator cubes. Flash blend and open pour with a gated finish into a footed pilsner glass. If you don't have a drink blender (I don't) then shaking obviously does the trick.

For the garnish use one spear for three maraschino cherries and the pineapple chunk. Place horizontally on the rim of the glass. It represents V for victory in Morse code •••—

This drink is a certified tiki classic from Don the Beachcomber during WWII, later decoded by Jeff Beachbum Berry, and republished in the Smuggler's Cove book, page 43.

Doctor Funk by Donn Beach

½ oz lemon juice
½ oz lime juice
¼ oz grenadine
½ oz demerara syrup
¼ oz absinthe
2¼ oz Black Pot Still Rum
1 oz seltzer

Garnish: pineapple frond
Method: Combine all ingredients with ice, shake or flash blend, open pour.

This one is one of my favorite tiki drinks. This version is from the Smuggler's Cove book, page 266. In it Martin Cate emphasizes that a funky Jamaican rum is needed to stand up to the hearty dose of absinthe. Jamaicans are far and away my favorite rums so this one always hits the spot for me. Pictured in the background is Hamilton's black pot still, which is the specific rum called for in this drink. However, if you don't have it on hand you can blend two rums (a black and a pot still) to land mostly in the same place, as is praxis in tiki anyway.
