Same But Different: Rums, Falernum, Lime, Cinnamon & Absinthe

While perusing our home "cocktail menu," Lulu came across two she hadn't had in a while –– my Jet CoPilot and "Tony Rocky Horror." She asked, "What's the difference?"

In addition to the cheap laugh, the comparison inspired me to create this "Same But Different" series of our blog.
