The Next Level of Homemade Drinks
A lot of Tiki drinks use fire. However, it does not do the trick to just pour 151 rum over a sugar cube. For a real Tiki-fire you need a secret ingredient. On top of that, I decided to come up with a Vulcano Bowl style drink using rum and cognac. It basically means that […]
Of course, 2020 also has a Tiki Month and we want to start it off with a rather typical Tiki drink. Although, I have created a fair share of non-rum based Tiki drinks, it is also fun to get inspired by classic Tiki cocktails. This time it is all about a Missionary’s Downfall cocktail variation. […]
It’s February and this means that it is Tiki month again! In this proud tradition I present to you a month full of exotic, Polynesian-style cocktails. Of course, this also means a lot of rum, spices and extraordinary liqueurs. The opening cocktail for this year’s Tiki month is a classic Rum Barrel. However, I took […]
Following last week’s crazy Tiki adventure the cocktail I want to present to you now is quite different, but still very intriguing! This time the name is more than just the title of a song, instead it is also a hint for the Nordic ingredients used in the recipe. Ingredients from the North in a […]
Tiki month is here, so it is the same procedure as every February! This means that I of course, have special drinks in stall for you. Now you might expect a conglomerate of various rum and exotic ingredients. However, who says that Tiki drinks have to contain rum at all? So, this year I decided […]
This is another Tiki drink without any rum. However, what it lacks in rum, it makes up for in more than one way! I don’t even know where to start: it is a complex composition of brandy, sherry and melons. Yes you have read correctly: melons and they are not even the best part! So, […]
Sometimes your guests demand something “special”, something extraordinary. Of course you could just suggest a classic cocktail that fits their taste, but another thing that I like to do and what I consider pretty much fun is creating an unique drink just for them. So, this was what I did for one of my best […]
Yes, it is this time of year again! – No, not Christmas! It is Tiki Month and of course I set out to create a few new tropical inspired cocktails for you. So join me on this rum soaked journey with my first creation the “Natives Are Restless Tonight” and yes that is the name […]
One important recipe I forgot to give you during Tiki month: Homemade Orgeat. Throw out your amaretto like almond syrups, this one is different and better in almost every way.
If you didn’t notice before: Vanilla is one of my favorite flavors. I’m talking about real vanilla here, not the cloyingly sweet vanilla flavor you know from ice cream or stuff like that.
