The Atomic Grog had the opportunity recently to get a preview of the Last Rites and we weren’t disappointed. You’ll definitely want to try this potent concoction, which ranks right up there with the Zombie and Special Planters Punch as a classic tropical drink ...

Last Rites is a very sour and exotic drink with a distinctive flavor from the The Mai-Kai’s house falernum. It’s a bit different than the recipe in Sippin' Safari (there are multiple rums), perhaps tweaked in the 1970s or ’80s to reflect changing tastes. Check back for a new review after Hulaween.

And don't miss the Atomic Retro Happy Hour starting at 5 p.m. featuring a playlist like nothing you’ve ever heard before, covering 50 years of music from the 1930s through the 1980s. The tunes will include vintage jazz and swing (Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Artie Shaw), exotica (Martin Denny, Robert Drasnin), mid-century lounge (Frank Sinatra, Henry Mancini), roots and rockabilly (Wanda Jackson, Johnny Cash, Link Wray), classic surf (Dick Dale, The Ventures), ’60s rock and garage (Rolling Stones, The Who, The Sonics), and early New Wave (Ramones, B-52s, The Cramps).

Mahalo and see you at Hulaween!
