Book excerpt: Try a tiki—a sweet, fruity blast from the past, updated for modern tastes Tiki cocktails are a tasty mid-twentieth-century American classic, but their popularity suffered when syrupy drink mixes hit the scene. Now it's time to welcome them back: Food blogger Nicole Weston and mixologist Robert Sharp have brought back the fresh taste of tiki drinks, banishing the artificial syrupy sweetness of mixes for fresh fruit juices, high-quality spirits, and homemade syrups. They offer a taste of the past with traditional recipes that honor the flavors of the Caribbean, South Pacific, and the Hawaiian Islands that first inspired the tiki cocktail. Including original recipes inspired by Asian and South American flavors, Tiki Drinks is a hybrid of the old and the new; the concept may be vintage but the drinks are fresh. Drinks include delicious updates of Jamaican Milk punch using fresh cream of coconut, Siren's Elixir with fresh-squeezed lemon and guava juice, and a Hawaiian Queen Bee with locally sourced honey and garnished with juicy, fresh-cut pineapple. Of course, what's a tiki drink book without a little Hawaiian lore and style? Tiki Drinks has that, and much more.

Book The Home Bar Guide to Tropical Cocktails

Download or read book The Home Bar Guide to Tropical Cocktails written by Kelly Reilly and published by . This book was released on 2018-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Craft Cocktails' are cocktails in which every element is handmade or tailored specifically to the drink. These cocktails are made slowly and with great care and attention to detail, in a similar vein to the artisan food or 'slow food' movement of recent years. They are intended for a hip, discerning and ultimately appreciative audience. Craft Tiki cocktails, along with Tiki culture generally, fell out of favour with the public, being regarded as somewhat antiquated and very much of a bygone era. But in recent years the Tiki scene has exploded once again, with a whole new generation of enthusiasts getting in on the act and continuing this vibrant, close-knit community. As well as offering a collection of 153 cocktail recipes, the book offers advice about setting up your own home Tiki bar. The authors help out with inspiration by showcasing the most celebrated home bars around. The text also explores the history of this fast-growing movement in which people, once again, dream of setting up a personal paradise in their own backyards - their very own Tiki oasis.
