We alternate among several “go to” cocktails at our home bar:

  1. The Mai Tai in either of two versions… the Moon Islander Mai Tai (http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=26860&forum=1&vpost=488554&hilite=moon) or the Royal Mai Tai (http://www.imbibemagazine.com/Royal-Mai-Tai-Cocktail-Recipe, and I do offer my apologies in advance for offending the Bum and other purists who quite rightly point out that orange and pineapple juices never had any place in a classic Mai Tai, but these recipes are pleasing to our tastes

  2. A stripped down version of the Zombie made to Trader Tiki’s recipe using his Don’s Mix (recipe on the label), quite easy to make and oh so calming…

  3. Margaritas on the rocks simply mixed from reposado, Cointreau and fresh lime juice, a lovely drink anytime, though I suppose it doesn’t count as a tiki drink

dcman: your Painkiller recipe looks intriguing; I'll give it a try at my next gathering of like-minded tipsters
