Does the mere fact that rum mixed with fruit juice put them in this category? Maybe there should be another drink category called "Tiki Revival". Me, I like to do it old school and only order drinks that are on the original 1961 Tiki-Ti menu (while I'm wearing my abstract-design Aloha shirt). :) Oh wait, I see that you did qualify the "Revival" part. I guess the real question is can a new drink be considered "Tiki Revival" if it was created in a non-Tiki enviroment? (like at someone's home). What about any new drinks that Martin might create at Smuggler's Cove? Which genre would get credit for that? I see the need for more categories. :) [ Edited by: JOHN-O 2009-10-12 12:07 ]
