A friend of mine was in the Navy and was stationed for a time in the Philippines.
He is looking to find the recipe for a drink that was made in a five gallon bucket and was called Mo Jo.
Knowing that many of the DTR family have been in the Military I thought that some of you might remember the drink and recall the amounts of the ingredients.
Thanks

 

1 qt light rum
1 qt dark rum
1 pint cherry brandy
6 bottles San Magoo beer
5 cans 7-Up® soda
4 qt pineapple juice
2 bags ice

 

2.5 gallons of Mo plus 2.5 gallons of Jo; heat to 350 degrees and stir occasionally for three hours...

 

How about this ? http://droogle.ca/drinks/25498-Mojo_phillipines

 

Why in the world does he want to drink that stuff again? For old times sake? lol; {shudder}

When you cross the "line of forgetfullness" on the way home you're not supposed to remember stuff like that. In any event, I don't think there was any strict recipe for Mojo - but more like a PI trashcan. While you're at it helping him with rekindling his past, look up balut.

Many folks can tell you stories about what San Miguel beer in the PI does to you. I'm still trying to forget.....

 

Line of forgetfullness? Isn't that about the same as PCOD?

 

I told him that I new a lot of deranged old goats that finding a recipe that involved alcohol would not be a problem. Thanks for not letting me down.

He did not want to make a batch, just trying to remember what it was that almost killed him a few times.

 

Ah yes, PCOD. Bruce, you can explain that one to the boots.

 

Ah, MoJo,,,,, I remember ordering some of that while in the P.I. I don't remember what happened after that but i was told I really liked eating Balut that night !!! Not sure I would eat it when sober...

 

I didn't think there was a recipe for mojo as well. It was usually just whatever was brought and ended up in the can, at least with us Seabees.

 

That might have a kick to it. Make for a short night, and a powerfull headach in the morning
