This is the 1940s-era Trader Vics recipe. For the Don the Beachcomber version, substitute the demerara syrup and allspice dram with 1 ounce of SC Honey syrup and ¾ oz seltzer. Don's version was traditionally served with an ice cone (see SC page 241). If serving with an ice cone, after flash blending strain over the ice cone instead of open pour.
