My wife and I enjoy mixing drinks together, but mostly the 'classic' cocktails. Tonight we've rented South Pacific and we plan to make--for the first time ever--a tiki drink. What do you recommend? If possible, please include a recipe. Thanks! |

I'd suggest keeping things simple. A derby daiquiri is a good transition from classic style cocktails to tiki. That website also has tons of recipes for other tiki classics like the Mai Tai and Zombie. gabbahey |

Yeah! Scorpion Bowl! Drop by 7-11 for some long slurpee straws and fill up any exotic bowl/vase/fishtank you got. Don't forget the tunes, Martin Denny and Les Baxter on Pandora or search the Tiki Music thread for free downloads. gabbahey |

I agree that the TV Mai Tai is a perfect drink for beginners. |

Consider TV's Mai Tai as "Tiki Drinks 101". |
