    Whew! The amount of subtle (and not so subtle) references to this classic flick was crazy well done. Now after seeing you and Ann make this, I'll have to get around to making it. I've steered away from tiki for the colder months but this one sounds a good excuse to make one. Look forward to tomorrows live. Cheers pal!

    Don't worry, I'm pretty sure I messed up Mindy's name for sure. I like your addition of Nutmeg on the top, that would really boost the senses for sure. I can't say enough great things about this cocktail. It really does embody all things nice about the all to regifted fruitcake! Cheers my friend. Someday we will share one together. Great video as always. Happy Holidays to you and Jess!

    I love that Mindy has apparently gone on to have a wildly successful career in the spirits industry, she definitely deserves it based on this cocktail alone! I believe she's part of the Patron family now, pretty rad. But yea, this drink is a winnner! Thank you for the holiday wishes, same to you and yours! Hopefully we'll see you at Trader Sams, or Hale Pele someday soon!

    I was in my boss's office for four hours today... I remember seeing that you were gonna make this today too, so at noon (here) I peeked at my phone... Didn't see your video... Was bummed... Went home, then I saw it! Then I saw you shake and was bummed... Music in my head and then tricked again... I'm so exhausted, I was like is he gonna not have it? and before I could finish the thought, I was already humming it and then was like, nope not there... I am trying to get El Dorado 12 tomorrow, so if I do, I'll make it again! With nutmeg! Which sounds better than the buttmeg I originally just wrote...

    Haha, I forgot that I had actually scheduled the video to air *later* than I normally have it.. so even *I* thought I had forgot to upload it. Then an hour later "oh there it is.. good!". Ah yea, I usually "shake up" the shaking song when it's a holiday, which apparently throws folks off, you and others, maybe I should just stick to the real one. hah. And ya, Buttmeg is when you get all the way down to the final nib of the nutmeg and start shaving off that last little bit, the butt of the nutmeg. Thanks for watching as always, Matt! Cheers!!!

    An enjoyable episode, thanks a bunch! Loved all the little clips from National Lampoon; I had almost forgotten about that movie. As for the drink - I wonder if you could sub a regular rum for the spiced rum; you’ve already got the allspice dram, angostura, cinnamon stick and nutmeg in there. Plantation 5 year or Bacardi 8 might be good. I definitely want to make this drink. Anyway- Happy Holidays to you and your family.

    Thank you for watching!! Glad you enjoyed! I would say subbing spiced rum for Bacardi 8 (gold) would be *amazing*, I think Bacardi 8 has such amazing flavor, so it would only boost the fullness of the flavor, I may even do that myself!! Cheers!
