	The Ponton Smash is a whiskey drink cosplaying as a rum drink. It’s whiskey slipping a lei around its neck and pretending it was always designed for the summertime, and what’s more, it’s actually pulling it off. It’s refreshing and tropical, herbaceous and bright, and the reason it works—the reason this is one of the only tiki bourbon drinks you’ll ever see—isn’t because of an unusual build or beachy origin or some exotic tree-sap unearthed from the Bornean jungle.

To be considered a bourbon whiskey, it must have a mash bill of at least 51% corn (although the percentage is usually higher) with the rest of the ingredients, including any combination of wheat, rye, or barley. It also must be made in the U.S. (although not just in Kentucky as a bourbon purist might try to tell you).

A red wine is the sum of several important factors. Terroir, grape varietal, weather, and the vintner’s skill conspire to create a sumptuous beverage that shares a color but varies wildly elsewhere. This diversity makes drinking red wine fun, and any pour of something new and unfamiliar can double as a mini-adventure filled with enticing flavor possibilities.

The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”
