Ad Icons, Tigers, and Leia's Lightsaber

This time we make a drink in honor of George Lucas's birthday and take an initial peek inside Laura's Funko Pop Collection. Along the way, we share some childhood stories about early collecting.

Leia's Lightsaber
1 oz Barcardi Light Rum
1 oz Hard Truth Toasted Coconut Rum
1 oz De Kuyper Blue Curacao
1/2 oz fresh squeezed Lime Juice
1/4 oz simple syrup
1/2 oz egg white
Shake with ice, strain, and serve over ice with a lime twist
I'm not loyal to any particular brand, but this is what we had on hand. I try not to make drinks that have a lot of weird liquors, but in this case, I really think the toasted coconut makes a difference.

Thanks Ann! I added the recipe :)

Ahhh. Saving the “proof of purchases” to get Boba Fett and the huge disappointment when the rocket wouldn’t shoot! Good stuff. There is no doubt she is a Jedi - by family and training. Yoda said it “There is another…”
