My "house cocktail” isn’t tiki per se, but I did develop it a few years ago using the staple tiki ingredients of orgeat and pimento dram. It has a spicy, warm, comforting quality, so I named it after the popular British WWI song, “Keep the Home-Fires Burning,” which I first heard on an episode of one of my favorite sitcoms, “Are You Being Served?”

The Home-Fires

2 oz bourbon
1/2 oz orgeat syrup
1/2 oz pimento dram
2 dashes orange bitters

Stir with ice and strain into a cocktail glass.
