Popped into Lei Low in Houston tonight for a couple drinks.
David our always gracious bartender let us sample several syrups and rums including the Clement coconut which I've never seen on a liquor store shelf, gave us a "night cap" of Plantation Pineapple cuz he knows how much I love it, and sent us home with a t-shirt and some of their house made orgeat and grenadine. I love this place.
Mike, glad to hear the excellent review of Lei Low. I think we'll be hearing more about them real soon.
I had to break down and see what all the fuss was about ...
Picked up the bottle Monday. Started out last night with a classic Daiquiri, which was outstanding. Tonight I went with a Tiki twist, adding passion fruit syrup and a few dashes of Angostura and Pernod. Great stuff!
Jim, hope to see Lei Low featured in This Week In Tiki soon. To continue my praise of the place, the bartender sent me this image earlier today from a liquor store where he spotted Stiggins. He's gonna pick some up for me and bring when he visits Austin soon. Now that's customer service!
Where did you get yours? Anxious to see how you play around with it outside of daiquiris or drinking neat. I've found that a 2:1:1 ratio works superbly for a Stiggins daiquiri.
Tonight for me is a Cobra.
