Nat, our good friend over at Alpha Cook and a former Felicia bartender, sent a package of goodies this year at the holidays. Cookies, her infamous homemade marshmellows, a hat for Leah, and fresh grenadine were some of the treats in the box. This week, we opened the bottle of pineapple gum syrup. Since Leah and I are about to head to Florida for a week (don't worry, the Lounge will still be open), we thought we'd start practicing for our tiki drink marathon.
No blender necessary. We're too lazy to get it out, use it, clean it and put it away. Whew. I got tired just thinking about that.
Here's a picture of Nat riding a creepy rabbit. No pineapple gum syrup in your house? You can buy it online from Small Hand Foods in San Francisco, or try substituting pineapple juice.

Oh no, that picture! At least you didn't think the rabbit was a donkey.
Boo for bad timing! I find an excuse to come back to Ithaca for the first time in years and you're skipping town! I will have to leave my regrets with your crew on Friday...
Have a good time in Florida though!
