does anyone know what Cabo Wabo recipe Sam likes to drink during concert?

I believe those are straight up "Waboritas" which is Cabo, Triple Sec, Lime juice and a splash of Blue Curacao.

Yes, any grocery store should carry it.

If you really want to go "top shelf" you can use Cointreau instead of triple sec, and add a splash of Damiana as well. But something tells me that if you're yelling, "Waitress!" ten times a show and then throwing your drink into the audience, you're probably not wasting the good stuff.

I'm sort of partial to Grand Marnia instead of Triple Sec but as with Cointreau, it's a bit on the pricey side so it's to be enjoyed, not wasted.

I'm From Canada and a botle of Cabo here is over $100.00. I recently took a trip to Chicago and picked up a bottle for $45.00. can't belive the difference. Cracked it open on the weekend, wow is that ever good stuff.

OK...here ya' go (for the best waboritas):

1 oz. Cabo Wabo Reposado
1 oz. Cointreau or Grand Marnier
4 oz. Minute Maid limeade (it has to be Minute Maid brand or it'll suck and when you mix it, mix it with 1 can less than what the directions say)
splash of blue curacao

put about 1/2 a shaker of ice in a shaker and add tequila, Cointreau, and limeade. Shake and strain into a martini glass. pour in blue curacao (if ya want it to look pretty and layered, pour it over a teaspoon to sit on the bottom of the glass). Enjoy your drunkeness!!!

Thanks for posting that kt. I've always mixed 1/3 tequila, 1/3 Grand Marnier or triple sec, 1/3 Rosa's Sweet Lime Juice then adjusted as needed. I'll have to give the Minute Maid a try as the lime juice can tend to be a bit too sour.
