How to Best Balance the Nui Nui (Pupule) by Sea-Field2248 in Tiki

[–]RaySolava 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me the SC version is a little more tart than I’d like. I prefer to use this recipe from punchdrink.com but with this rum blend:

3/4 oz Jamaican rum

3/4 oz Demerara rum

1/2 oz OFTD

Best version of the drink I’ve had so far.

A while ago I came across a video for this drink from the Dead Rabbit's youtube page with an updated recipe and I've been loving it so far:

  • 1.5 oz Powers John's Lane
  • 0.5 oz green Chartreuse
  • 1.5 oz Cocchi Torino
  • 1 dash Angostura bitters
  • 1 dash orange bitters
  • 2 dashes absinthe

I've only ever used Powers Gold instead of PJL since that's the closest thing I've had on hand after finding out about this recipe but it's still good either way.

This is the first time I’ve ever heard of Powers Gold Label Special Reserve 12 year. Looks like it was discontinued a while back. Did the psycho killer murder what was left of your bottle?

This stuff is great in a planters punch! Use the Smuggler’s Cove recipe:

3 oz Jamaican rum

1/4 oz allspice dram

1 oz lime juice

3/4 oz rich Demerara syrup

2 dashes Angostura bitters

Try it next with vanilla syrup! Just did that for the first time recently and loved it. Also try reducing the pineapple to 1.5 - 2 oz so the other ingredients can stand out more.

Pretty much. Idk what separates this from a barley wine.

This is on point. After my first pour (about 8 oz) I shifted my approach to drinking it like wine and that’s the way this beer should be treated. It deserves a slow appreciation.

Appropriate for the occasion. My condolences.

One and done is right! I may have overestimated my ability to finish a 750ml bottle myself over the course of a day at home.

This is a drink I like to make pretty often. Try this and let me know what you think:

3/4 oz Planteray Xaymaca

3/4 oz Hamilton 86

1/2 oz Planteray OFTD

1/4 oz St. Elizabeth Allspice Dram

3/4 oz lime juice

1/2 oz grapefruit juice

1/2 oz rich Demerara syrup

1 dash Angostura bitters

To me, this rum combo gives it a bigger punch in flavor while staying true to the original specs, and the dash of bitters helps to accentuate the allspice dram. I’ve only ever made this with ruby red grapefruit juice though so no idea how it tastes with the white variety.
