*Corrections*
- The Saturn first showed up in Taboo Table, not Intoxica
- The original Saturn recipe was actually 2 ¾ oz before dilution
*Finding Popo: The Search for a Lost Tiki Master Bartender by David Wondrich*
www.thedailybeast.com/the-search-for-lost-tiki-master-bartender-popo-galsini
The history of the Saturn is one of the most interesting looks at the life and evolution of a cocktail. Unlike the Zombie or Mai Tai, the Saturn was never a popular drink until Beachbum Berry shared the recipe in Intoxica. The drink was a rare tiki era cocktail to not feature rum, but according to Popo the Saturn was meant to be used as a template for gin, rum, and even VODKA!
J Popo Galsini led an interesting life and was a true bartender. Bouncing around from bar to bar and competing in competitions year after year and often winning or at least placing. Hopefully one day we can get the exact specs on the Mosquito and at least the ingredients for Queen's Choice.

    Derek, I LOVE this video! The deep dive on the history and the images you use are amazing, makes for a great watch so thank you for the quality of your videos. Also, I’ve tinkered with this one and my proportions are 1, 1, 1.5 oz of Lime, Grapefruit and OJ. I hump up the passionfruit syrup by .25 Oz and take down the Demerara syrup by .25. I’ve used a Cuban Rum (Havana Club) as my base and then the same Hamilton Rums for the Jamaican and float. My twist on it is a little more tart but with the club soda, it’s just how I like it!! I hope you give it a try. Enjoy!

    This is a great video! I think a lot of UA-camrs use certain ingredients, and don't think about how viewers may need additional info on them. I've used all of these except the coconut water from an actual coconut. I think lots of people must "frown" on the Coco Real - I used it in my last video and I saw a dropoff in viewers at the moment I added it to the drink! Now that I hear you say you don't mind it, I don't feel as much like I did something wrong, lol.

    If your production techniques get much better, you're going to need a mini series on Netflix. The Saturn was probably the first "tiki" drink I ever had with gin, and made me appreciate gin more. I don't know if you've ever made the Cobra's Fang on the channel, but maybe you could do a video or a series on the Cobra's Fang, the Sidewinder's Fang (from Smuggler's Cove), and the Golden Fang (from the Death & Co. book, "Welcome Home), which is a gin variation.
