Yuck. You know, a lot of people out there are really affected by the weather. I'm no different. It's really gloomy out there. It's still early spring right now, so the plants aren't around to spruce things up with color. It's times like these where I sit on my couch and dream about the sunny hot days of Summer.
So what better way to pretend we're sitting on the beach taking in the sun then with a delicious tropical drink? Today we're going to learn how to make Pretty Boy's own tropical delight, the Pretty Boy Island.
Pretty Boy Island recipe:
1/2 oz. Carnival XO
1 oz. Rum
1/2 oz. Gin
1/2 oz. Tequila
1/2 oz. Midori
Lime soda
garnish with Maraschino Cherry
Serve in Hurricane glass
Get a glass and add a healthy helping of ice. Add the Rum, Gin, Tequila, Midori and Carnival XO. Slash with your choice of lime soda. Now stir your drink at least 4 times. Top it all off with a maraschino cherry. You don't really need a hurricane glass, but it really adds to the aesthetic of a tropical drink, don't you think?
When using liqueurs like Carnival XO, you can make a rainbow effect in your drink. Just get an inverted teaspoon (rounded side up) and slowly poor the liqueurs over the spoon. Use the heavier liqueurs first. You'll end up with a neat multilayer rainbow.
There you go! Now I'm going to go back and pretend it's right in the middle of June with my Pretty Boy Island. Enjoy!

Pretty Boy Blog Part 2
The Pretty Boy Blog has officially uprooted and moved on to a new spot. You may have noticed the lack of posts. In our move, we had to say goodbye to posts of old.
That's ok, because at Pretty Boy, we're focused on the here and now. And to us, the here and now is pretty boys. We wake up everyday scouring the world over for pretty boys so that the world may fawn over them and celebrate their sexiness. We believe their time is now, and we're the people that are giving them their chance to take the world by storm. Can you imagine a world without pretty boys? It's a sad, dark world filled with stained shirts, uneven stubble and depressing night clubs...
Pretty Boy Enterprises Inc. is here to let the world experience the Pretty Boy phenomena.
Though we may have lost some content, everything else is the same. I, Jesse, will still be posting various juicy Pretty Boy tidbits for you, and we may even get a post or two by our fearless leader himself, Roc. So no one out there worry. You'll still get the scoop on Pretty Boy and Pretty Boy related news from around the globe and into your monitor.
