The crew deep dive on daiquiri variations like the Hemingway, Hotel Nacional and the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club. Mike shares some cocktail anecdotes of his time sipping drinks in Cuba, and how you can make Cuban-style drinks at home. Then they breakdown the disparate parts of the Miami Vice drink, before drifting down to the Virgin Islands to discuss the almighty Painkiller. Recipes abound!
