Even your average fan of fine film or fine food might occasionally enjoy a Kevin Smith flick or a Twinkie, no? Even a student of fine cocktails might occasionally enjoy a less-than-fine drink, am I right?
There's nothing wrong with a guilty pleasure, so long as you consciously recognize why it's guilty.
To make you feel better, here are five guilty pleasures of the legendary Jeffrey Morgenthaler.
Mine? It changes occasionally, but my go-to is the Blue Hawaiian cocktail. My preferred recipe has varied over the years, but here's my current one. Don't judge me, just drink.
Blue Hawaiian
1 oz cream of coconut
1 oz blue curacao
1.5 oz light rum
4 oz pineapple juice
1 dash lime juice
Shake everything in a shaker with ice cubes of any size, and strain into a tall glass with crushed or cubed ice. Garnish with anything as long as it's orange to contrast with the blue.

There’s just something about seeing a big turquoise glass of tropical stuff go to someone else’s table that gets me every time, that makes me wanna cry out, “Me too!” It’s like a lagoon in a vase, and it can be all yours.
