I don't think I've tasted half the stuff you listed. I don’t happen to see my favorite whiskey on your list, Maker’s Mark :(

]]> Comment on Planter’s Punch by Robert M Cucurull http://slakethirst.com/2005/07/18/planters-punch/#comment-5348 Robert M Cucurull Mon, 14 Jul 2008 17:28:01 +0000 http://slakethirst.com/?p=94#comment-5348 Your Slakethirst recipe is good but I make one change. In lieu of 3 ozs of dark rum I u8se 1 oz dark, 1oz light colored, and 1oz white (Bacardi type). On a hot day this drink can be lethal so I limit myself to 1 drink and my guests the same. If the drinks are spaced far enough apart on summer day you can serve the 2nd drink. Your Slakethirst recipe is good but I make one change.

]]> Comment on Mmmm… Mauby! by vic http://slakethirst.com/2005/04/17/mmmm-mauby/#comment-5340 vic Thu, 03 Jul 2008 21:50:15 +0000 http://slakethirst.com/?p=66#comment-5340 I was in the DR and tried to bring back some roots from a producer of the products but they took them from me at customs. I did see that it was made by adding the bark to water and it would ferment very quickly. Then it was sweetened. Would the dry bark from the Carib market—if I could find it—work the same way? I am in NJ and have friends in the DR, but I don't want to get anyone in trouble smuggling it in. Can I buy it here like the roots I bought there?

I have to add that I do feel some frustration with similar drinks having different names. It's hard to remember which was which sometimes, if it's not a classic.

Now to my question: since sugar and yeast + ingredients ferment, how much sugar is really left in the mavi? I am asking because of type II diabetes. Thanks, Cesar. ¡Hola, mavi aficionados…I have always loved mavi, always bought it ready-made in the plaza.

Since you left a vitacoco.com email address, I'll assume you're an employee of the company, with something of an attendant bias (if not, say, a job description that includes astroturfing). Haven't seen your product in my local grocery, but I'll keep an eye out. Thanks, Giselle.
