So this happened...
And then this...
And then this...
And then this.
Thanks for a fun evening of book shopping & cocktails, @EsquireGirl , and for being a Cookie Momster.
I‘m going to complete my South Pacific evening with some Samoas ... 😋
Today's #RiotGrams Books & Treats! Rum is a treat, right? Well, I can argue it's a food group as well...
If you love tiki bars and rum based cocktails, I can't recommend this book enough. It's more than just recipes but also a history of tiki culture and the history of rum. This blustery day can only be improved with a Mai Tai. #bookswithpictures #seasonsreadings2016
This book has inspired me to throw a tiki party. Based on the cocktails at SF's Smuggler's Cove bar. I used to go to Trader Vics. Then there's SF's Tonga Room with an indoor rainstorm, alameda's Forbidden Isle bar, Santa Cruz has Hula's and San Jose rocks the Hukilau. Do you have a fav tiki bar?
Amazing background on tiki bars and their new popularity! I love the old throwback pics. Based on cocktails from SF's Smuggler's Cove bar. Cheers!
This is an amazing book! It goes into the history and revival of Tiki culture. The cocktails are based on recipes from the Smuggler's Cove bar in SF. It also includes ones from Trader Vic's and more! Get yourself a Mai Tai stat!
Umberto Eco wrote that the American imagination demands the real thing and, to attain it, must fabricate the absolute fake. Picked by my wife. Part cultural study, part cocktail recipes. The tale of the rum runners and entrepreneurs who invented tiki bars and the Polynesian myth. Cowabunga!
