Episode #136 Tiki Bars

In today's episode we explore the wonderful world of  Tiki

We taste a Tiki inspired drink (the same we had last episode)

Finally, we discuss a bit of the history of Tiki bars

If you would like to see what Critiki is about for yourself, check out their website and begin to see this wonderful sub culture.

The taste of this episode is once again a Lyford Cay Rum Dum, Batch

• 1 cup Lemon Juice
• 1 cup Simple syrup
• 2 cup Water
• 1 Egg white
• 1 and a half ounces of light rum
• 1 ounce of dark Jamaican Rum

1. Combine the lemon juice, simple syrup, water, and egg white together to create a sweet and sour mix.
2. Add 3.5 ounces of the mixture to a blender and blend briefly with the light rum.
3. Pour the blended mixture over ice in a short, chilled glass.
4. Carefully float the dark rum over the top of the drink.

Here once again is the alternate version of this drink

We want everyone to share in the experience of going t a Tiki bar at some point, and are proud to shout out Psycho Suzi's Motor Lounge as the first such establishment that Aaron has ever been to.

Here are also links for Frankie's, and Gold Tiki which are both in Las Vegas, NV.

If you're looking for recipes for drinks of your own, we of course recommend Mixel and The Grogalizer, you can also check out Smuggler's Cove as it has been suggested many times by Greg from How to Drink. 

We hope you've enjoyed this episode, and would love to hear if you have any suggestions for future episodes.
