For some odd reason I love to call Orgeat liqueur but it is in actuality Almond Syrup not liqueur not sure why I said that in the video but I do, and it annoys me! OK now with that out of the way let's talk about the Saturn!

The Saturn was created by J. Popo Galsini in 1967 at the Kona Kai in Huntington Beach California. It was originally called the X-15, named after the hypersonic rocket operated by the Air Force and NASA as part of the X-Plane series of experimental aircraft introduced in 1959. Apparently the Kona Kai was a favorite watering hole for Douglas Aircraft engineers who designed the rocket, and Galsini befriended a few of them so made the cocktail as a tribute to their ingenuity. But in October 1967 the Rocket crashed killing pilot Michael Adams, this was the death of the X-Plane program (which rattled to a stop just a few months later in 1968) and Galsini decided to rename the cocktail The Saturn after the Saturn V Rocket which propelled the first Apollo flight in 1967. It was under the new name that Galsini entered the drink into the 1967 International Bartender's Association World Championships and won. If it were not for the work of Jeff "Beachbum" Berry this cocktail and the knowledge that Galsini was one of the top tiki bartenders of his time would be lost, but luckily we have great historians like him now who record all this information for the rest of us to enjoy!
