#8: Astro Aku Aku


Astro Aku Aku is a crazy drink.  This beast will knock you out if you're not careful, it's a good one to start the night with.  It is based off of the popular "Suffering Bastard" drink (which will come later), and was invented at the Hawaii Kai restaurant.
  • 1 1/2 oz fresh lime juice 
  • 1 oz papaya nectar 
  • 1/2 oz apricot nectar 
  • 3/4 oz sugar syrup 
  • 1/2 oz falernum dash Angostura bitters 
  • 1 oz 151 demerara rum 
  • 1 1/2 oz gold Puerto Rican rum

Two different kinds of rum, Payaya and Apricot nectar, Lime and syrup come together to make a unique mixture of sweet and sour flavors.  It almost resembles pineapple if you're not aware of the individual ingredients.
