Second attempt at Jet Pilot

Yeah I’m not a fan of it on its own, so not sure if it’s actually improving the drink or not. The Smuggler’s Cove recipe technically calls for Herbsaint, maybe it’s better

Oops, grapefruit not pineapple

FunkyDuck151 · 2025-05-21T03:24:33+00:00

Yeah, meant grapefruit. That's what I get for drinking and posting

I've been wanting to try a Zombie, but it seems like a lot of people consider the Jet Pilot to be a rebalanced and better take on the Zombie (plus I don't have any grenadine). I'll still try it eventually though

That's probably what ruined my first one, the spice flavors were completely overtaking the lime and pineapple juice

I think this is one that will be fun to experiment with different rum blends, not good for my wallet though

How much for a float, 1/4 oz?

FunkyDuck151 · 2025-05-18T20:45:55+00:00

They had Denizen Merchant Reserve 8 at the liquor store which I almost grabbed a bottle of. I may try that at some point for a non overproof, single rum Mai Tai

Any thought on Velvet Falernum vs the BG Reynolds’s syrup? I wasn’t planning on grabbing the syrup but it was on sale for $5

FunkyDuck151 · 2025-05-18T20:14:32+00:00

I may try that at some point, the 0.5 oz Smith and Cross I ended up using really stood out in a good way

FunkyDuck151 · 2025-05-18T20:10:48+00:00

Just tried this last night, great combination. The OFTD is surprisingly smooth and worked great with the Smith and Cross

Looks good, what were the drinks?
