Notes

The Macadamia Nut Chi Chi is unabashedly a boat drink. But as you slurp up every last delicious drop through a brightly colored straw, just ask yourself: how much do you really care?

This is a quality cocktail, but I only half filled my blender and it still felt like too much ice. Next time I might play around with a smaller amount, and substitute a light rum for the vodka.
