My Fruity Drink Experimentations - Tiki Drinks and Food

To me, a fruity drink refers to the lame sweet syrupy messes created by ignorant bartenders/restaurants that are passed off as Tiki drinks, they're not legitimate, and if that's all there is, it's a good reason to stick to beer, even cheap beer. Referring to Tiki drinks as fruity drinks just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. My favorite Tiki cocktails are a balance of sweet and sour and a bit boozy and I would never consider them a fruity drink. Of course, that's just me. Have you picked up any of the Beachbum Berry books?
