Perfect Drink® recipe


Headhunter

From the Cocktail Slut Blog, created by Mannie "Blackie" Andal of New York's Hawaii Kai restaurant circa 1960. The Orchids of Hawaii Bartenders Guide describes it as "a delightful way to start a hangover"

I couldn't find the regular canned papaya nectar so I blended 2 parts fresh papaya with 1 part water. At about 65% papaya vs 21% in the canned, this has significantly more papaya flavor.

Balanced, leaning towards tart. A nice showcase for papaya flavor but rather one dimensional. 3/5 stars
