Looking forward to spending the remainder of the week aboard, hope everybody has a safe and enjoyable 4th. Tom

Here’s a true boat drink that I was introduced to a number of years ago while in the Bahamas.  It’s called Goombay Smash, and is something of a local favorite.  Goes like this: 1 Portion        Simple Syrup consisting of 1/2 cup sugar, 1 cup water. 84 ounces      Pineapple juice. 2 ounces        Lime juice. 20 ounces      Light Rum. 12 ounces      Coconut Rum Liqueur. 2 ounces        Pineapple Rum Liqueur. Pour all of the above ingredients into a one gallon jug, shake like hell, refrigerate, and prepare for damage control.  Warning:  This stuff goes down like fruit punch and by the time you realize its potency, it’s too late to do anything about it.  Bottoms up.

What time are you serving?  I was possibly thinking Oroville this weekend. Bill

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – It’s a "Top Shelf Margarita" for me. I bit pricey, but yum-yum. Problem is when everyone else wants one. Recipe: 2 Shots Tequila 1 and 1/2 Shots Grand Marnier 1/2 to 3/4 Shot Cointreau 2 Shots Sweet & Sour Over ice, shaken, not stirred or blended. They go really great with beer-battered clams and beer battered Oreo cookies. And this weekend we’re having them during our Mexican Pot-Luck at Lake Oroville. Another good drink I haven’t had in a few years is a "Gorilla Tit" 1 Shot Bacardi 151 1 Shot Wild Turkey 1 Shot Jack Daniels Float 1 Shot Peppermint Schnapps Float Dash of 7-up Slam on bar, slam it back. I had this one in St. Thomas. I remember the first couple of ‘em, but that’s about it. Next day, I could not make a fist or wear shoes though??? And last, I always suggest Beer. You have to be very-very careful on this one though. I require that any beer that is brought near my boat have the most important quality of boat drinks there is, It must be a "wet beer". Everyone must know about my requirements on this one. Because I have yet to have anyone show up with a "non-wet beer". It can have funny names, be warm, frozen ,bottled, canned or be stored on a soaked towel, but it must be "WET"! You know what, now that I think about it, I might be wasting my time declaring my beer prerequisite…. Isn’t all beer wet???

I must agree. Rum is the drink. Straight, and over ice with a twist of lemon or lime. That and Corona…

   You guys have good taste.

Club soda with a twist of lemon, on-the-rocks. Nerdy, I know, but I just don’t care to go out on my boat UIA.<< Right.  Drinking in the slip after a day on the water is where the action

is. Unfortunately, I trailer to our fishing club. Then, I have to drive the rig back home. But then, it *might* be Miller Time. -Jeff

Any scotch fans here? I discovered an incredible 10 year old single-malt from western Scotland called Laphroiag (Pronounced La-Froyg).  It’s smokey, peatty and a little bit ‘o heaven right here on earth, laddie. My #2 is Glenfiddich – recently bumped from #1 by Laphroiag. Either one to be served straight up, or rocks. Of course, there’s always the standby Tanguray & tonic. Charlie

To this end – we keep the boat fridge stocked with those Poland Spring Sport Bottles, lots of Apple & Eve juice boxes … and – for a real thirst quencher – lots of fresh cut up watermelon!
