Show Notes

It's Happy Hour! In this episode Ben struggles with his dislike of slushy cocktails while making a fruity Piña Colada. Is it because he can't get the right ratio of ice to the good stuff? Probably. Meanwhile Matthew presents a true rye whiskey classic, the Ward Eight. Matthew always was the classier brother. Recipes below.

Strawberry Kiwiberry Piña Colada

  • 2 oz white Puerto Rican Rum (Bacardi)
  • 1 oz pineapple rum (Plantation Stiggins' Fancy Pineapple)
  • 2 oz Cream of Coconut
  • 3 1/2 oz of Pineapple Juice
  • 6 medium frozen strawberries
  • 4 kiwi berries
  • 1 1/4 cups of ice

Combine white rum, cream of coconut, pineapple juice, strawberries and kiwi berries into a blender (the pineapple rum is added later). Blend until smooth. Pour into a Hurricane glass or other large glass. Carefully pour pineapple rum on top as a float. Garnish with a fresh strawberry and fresh kiwi berries.

Ward Eight

  • 1 3/4 oz Rye (Bottled in Bond Rittenhouse)
  • 3/4 oz Lemon Juice
  • 1/4 oz Orange Juice
  • 1/2 oz Grenadine

Combine all ingredients into a shaker with ice. Shake for 10-12 seconds. Double-strain into a coupe glass. Garnish with a cocktail cherry or three.
