I've had good luck mixing huge batches of the Rum Barrel from the original Grog Log. The only thing I change is cutting the 151 in half and adding gold rum (Appleton or Mount Gay.) It's a real crowd pleaser, sweet enough to please the Tiki Newbies and sweet-tooths yet complex and strong enough for more sophisticated Tikiphiles. Be sure to warn your guests that the magic nudity number is 4 Rum Barrels--no one hits four and still has all their clothes on.

The Mai Kai Barrel O Rum is another good bet. You can find that recipe online or in Beachbum Barry's newest recipe book, Taboo Table

Another drink I would recommend that's real easy to make in big batches is the following Blue Hawaii recipe, posted by my friend I, Zombie some time ago:

1 part Malibu
1 part Bols Blue Curacao
3 parts Dole Pineapple juice

Throw a handful or two of ice in a blender and fill with this mixture. Blend until smooth. If too sweet for your friends, add a little lime juice. Serve in a clear glass so people can get all excited about the color.
