My copy found its way to Germany, too! Thanks again, Beau, for your efforts and your kind conversation! What a great find. I already mixed the "Never say die", and it was awsome! Aloha, |

Menus from tiki restaurants can easily sell for over $100. Here's something that has a much cooler history, has lots of recipes in it, in perfect condition, and it's written by two people who helped create the tiki world we all know and love. A pretty awesome deal if you ask me. One of my favorite things about this book is that you can make most of the drinks in it with a handful of common ingredients—unlike many of the tiki recipe books that call for obscure components. |

This is so cool, can't wait for mine to arrive! What essentially made me order this was that someone mentioned it has a another Never Say Die recipe and I've always been intrigued by that drink for some reason. How many Beachcomber drinks does this booklet approximately have? |

Hi Ron, I'd love to get a booklet too, can you give me an indication for postage to the Netherlands? Many thanks! PS: I know this isn't much of an introduction as I'm a new poster, but I've been a long-time lurker and hope to be able to start contributing in the future.. this was just a very good reason to register. Sorry :) |

Going through this booklet, I notice a lot of call for "powdered sugar". Am I to translate that into "Confectioner's sugar"? I'm not sure at this point. I've not found many calls for powdered sugar in the recipes in my collection. |

I've always thought they were the same. Just to make sure, I looked it up on the 'net: http://whatscookingamerica.net/Q-A/sugar.htm Site above states they are the same. If you have it on hand, you could use it, but I imagine an equal amount of simple syrup would be the same?? howlinowl |

These days most recipes call for simple syrup instead. The advantage of powdered sugar over regular sugar is that it is easier to dissolve in cool liquids. |

Thanks friends. I was sure powdered sugar and confectioner's were one in the same; it was just that I'd not seen it called for in drink recipes in the past. As I always have my simple syrup on hand, I'm pretty sure I'll use that. Last night I made "Moano's Own" (Page 24) substituting Kohala Bay for the Meyer's, El Dorado 12 year old as the Demerara, Lemon Hart 151 (No Bacardi 151 on hand) and Pernod for the Herbasaint. THAT is one tasty drink! Very flavorful and balanced. Couldn't have just one . . . made myself two of 'em! |

Looks DELICIOUS Hang10tiki I WANT ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Or maybe 2 like you. Gotta try to keep up with the Tiki crowd while I am learning the and YEARNING for the lifestyle. Subliminal Message: order your booklet today - time is short 41 booklets left and it will leave me with the 10 I am keeping for the kids and grand kids + 2 I am framing. After that, I have a "Top Secret Project" that myself and one of the High Tiki Priests here at TC have been working on to announce to THE WORLD! Well, OK - maybe not the Whole World, but at least to you Tiki Gods and Goddess's here at TC :) [ Edited by: Big Bad Beau 2014-04-06 11:16 ] |

"Top Secret Project"......wonder if it might be similar to what I was thinking you probably should do....that is, if you own the copyright to the book. "Top Secret Project" of "Amazon" like porportions..... you should really start to "kindle" the fire of that "project"....might be a nice moneymaker. Am I guessing close??? howlinowl |
