I had to bring this thread back to life. I also had to choose between many very early Tiki Central threads about this topic!

I LOVE SHASTA TIKI PUNCH!

Yes, I know... it's very sweet. So what???
And yes, I initially bought it because its got "Tiki" right there in the title, and a Tiki on the label. I'm not ashamed!

Tonight, to celebrate the rebirth of Spring, and the re-opening of my backyard Granite Tiki Lounge, I decided to run to the Dollar Tree Store, and buy several 3 Liter bottles of this wonderfully sweet, fizzy drink.

I was tempted to post this in the Tiki-On-A-Budget thread since one dollar for 3 liters of such a great mixer seems to be the best bargain in the drink world. (water doesn't count)

Now, on to the important part, I mixed it with:

One shot of Orange Curacao
One shot of Cruzan Estate Light Rum
One shot of Cruzan Estate Dark Rum
One shot of Cruzan Banana Rum
One shot of Cruzan Pineapple Rum
Over ice

That Tiki Fruit Punch stands up to all those flavors and rum quite well!

I may have forgotten the shot of dark rum in the second drink I mixed, but quite honestly, since I'm a bit of a light weight, I was past caring.

I'm loving this drink and look forward to experimenting more with Shasta Tiki Punch!!!!
