I had to make one this evening without crushed ice (long story) and it was a let-down. Still decent, but it requires precision to come off right. But damn, when it's right, it's soooooooooooo right.

Sipping it now as I write, and it's great. This is a wonderful drink, and your write-up inspired me to make one on the spot! Sipping it now as I write, and it’s great.

And, man, six weeks (weeks!) between batches, sheesh. Love this stuff but it's torture to sit and wait to try a new flavor/version out. I suppose I have the option of having 3L+ of pimeto dram hanging around but that seems a bit like eating a whole box of Andes mints.
