under Rule 2, Rum, Tiki Month 2010

It has been nearly a year since I’ve given Matt “Rumdood” Robold any grief on these pages. This sort of neglect is what happens when I have actual interesting things to write about here.

You think that what you write is interesting?
Really?

Well, no. But entire tens of people read this blog, so I soldier on.
And in the interest of the new Rule 2 Project, I’d like to note that Matt has posted an entertaining read about a cocktail that is perhaps the entire historical arc of Tiki in a specially shaped glass. The Rule 2 Work this month is aimed at Tiki posts by non-Tiki-bloggers, and since Matt is infamously not a Tiki-blogger, here you go.
Matt seems to be a sucker for grand old drinks that once were awesome and now are usually, um… not Scottish. His rants about trying to get a decent Daiquiri or Mai Tai in a restaurant are the stuff of mild amusement legend.
Matt’s target this month is the wonder and horror that is the Hurricane. It is a good read, so I won’t bother teasing it with stolen pictures or his recipe. I’ll just leave you with this quote:

Of course, as the drink has become corrupted over the years, the variations of the recipe have multiplied like rabbits set loose in a Viagra factory.
