60 recipes inspired by the history of tiki as well as the modern
revival that's putting a fresh spin on tropical tiki drinks--all
simplified for the home bartender from cocktail authority PUNCH.
Tiki is the dream of escape, a tropical vacation complete with warm
ocean water, island music, and beachside dinners. Kicking back with a
tiki cocktail may be the epitome of easy living, but ironically, tiki
drinks are among the hardest to make, often requiring eight or more
ingredients. Now Easy Tiki is here to solve that problem!
Easy Tiki examines the modern tiki revival offering sixty transporting
recipes that re-jigger the classics with minimal ingredients while still
maintaining the delicious balance, spices, and stunning garnishes that
define tiki cocktails. Drinks include classics such as the Beachcomber's
Gold and Fog Cutter and modern cocktails such as Elusive Dreams and
Paradise Lost. Easy Tiki also includes an overview of the origins of
the tiki genre, from Don the Beachcomber and the mid-century tiki craze
to Trader Vic's and beyond.
With Easy Tiki it's easier than ever before to sit back with a Mai Tai
or Pearl Diver and enjoy the island life--wherever you are.
