Those of us who have been around for awhile remember the days of Trader Vic's and Don the Beachcomber , two legendary haunts that laid the groundwork for the Tiki craze. While they may be gone, the Tiki cocktail culture is alive and well. Here, we've assembled everything you'll need to bring a Caribbean vibe to your home bar.
Shannon Mustipher's Tiki: Modern Tropical Cocktails has dozens of easy-to-follow recipes and presents new versions of classic tiki drinks along with original cocktails using quality rums, infused and fat-washed spirits, liqueurs, fresh fruit juices, and homemade syrups. Serve up your tropical concoctions in festive acrylic diver glasses from Beachbum Berry; we've included 4 here. They can be beautifully presented on our tropical-themed bamboo serving tray with coordinating cocktail napkins. "Tiki 500" Bitters with coconut, pineapple and allspice helps tame the sticky-sweetness that can sometimes overpower rum and tequila drinks. And luscious Toasted Coconut Syrup shines in tropical cocktails with its unique combination of toasted coconut, cane sugar, cold-pressed lemon oil and a pinch of salt. Complete the look by garnishing your creations with fresh fruit speared on our
hot-pink Tiki picks.
