#40: Ancient Mariner


     For the first drink of the second half, I decided to go alphabetical on the list and try the Ancient Mariner.  Created from dark rum and citrus juices, this drink has a strong tangy punch to it, making it another good middle-of-the-road flavor for those who don't want something too sweet, and with some bite.  This is Demerara Rum, Dark Jamaican Rum, Lime and Grapefruit juice, Syrup, and a bit of Pimento Dram.  Garnished with lime, stalk and cherry, its a great drink to commemorate the continuation of the Grog Log.
     Joining me this week once again is my co-captain Mike McKee, along with Katie Due, who is an alumnus of the Hut, and first-timer Lisa Miyamoto.  Pictured here, they are consuming a pair of Blue Hawaiians, so naturally they are having a great experience. Cheers!
