Kicking off my 30th birthday celebration at Tonga Hut, is a drink I had been saving, the Missionary's Downfall. With a name like that, I imagined it has to be awesome, and I was not disappointed. At a place like Tonga Hut where fresh ingredients are a staple, a drink like this is a must-have, where the major core is pineapple and mint, lots of mint.
- 1 oz White Rum
- ½ oz Peach Brandy
- 1 oz Honey Mix (1 part honey into one part boiling water, cooled and bottled)
- ½ oz Fresh Lime Juice
- ¼ cup Fresh diced Pineapple
- ¼ cup Tightly packed fresh mint
- ¾ cup crushed ice
The result is a minty, citrus-y, very refreshing drink with a mild sweetness. In the photo above, you can see the unique look to this minty cocktail, the mint and pineapple influence pretty transparent in the presentation. Overall, extremely good, something I would love to revisit from the Grog Log.
