Apple season is here, you’re going to want to make this for your upcoming halloween party - Grim Reaper mug optional…
PS. I got this tiki mug from my friends over @deathandcompany x @tikilandtrading and immediately thought, it was so ON-BRAND for Death & Co.
“Ohhh we’re halfway there...”
If you didn’t at least sing the last part in your head, you’re not human. Anyways, here’s a new mid-week recipe for y’all to celebrate. Cheers y’all!

Happy #FourthOfJuly friends! Got a confession - frozen tiki drinks are a guilty pleasure of mine, but who doesn’t love them, amirite? This one is a little more involved but I promise it’s well worth it. The recipe below is for 2 servings, but feel free to scale up at your leisure :)
This one combines 3 types of rum with some pineapple and coconut with a little cinnamon fire for dramatic effect… oh and it’s definitely not a regular Painkiller™ ;)
Cheers y’all!
THE WORLD’S TINIEST DAIQUIRI 🍹
…lovingly nicknamed a ’Snaquiri’. This was the most requested cocktail for this #TinyCocktail series so I had to oblige. This rendition is made with fresh calamansi juice which is near and dear to my heart (since I am Filipino and all). If you haven’t had calamansi, I describe it as a cross between a bitter orange, lemon and yuzu. The addition of that grapefruit oil adds more of that citrus aroma but is optional.
NOTE: Replace “Parts” with Ounces below to make a full size Daiquiri.
Cheers y’all.
Last but certainly not least — Cocktail #3 for the @holycityhandcraft // @brothersandcraft holiday social tonight plays on our Christmas season heartstrings. Made with local @stripedpigdistillery spiced rum, the fall spices infused into the rum lends itself well to this festive, tiki-inspired cocktail.

Read MoreAlright @notjustabartender, you convinced me…
Some people are out there hoarding their Green Chartreuse and some of us are using it as a base spirit 😂 This one is like if a Piña Colada and a Chartreuse Swizzle had a baby and served it over crushed ice in a Coco Lopez can. A big thank you Erick Castro-Diaz (@hungrybartender) for this spec. Absolutely incredible.
Here’s your Friday night in a glass.
This one is a little more involved but I promise it’s worth it. When it comes to crushable tiki-style cocktails, this is it right here. With the addition of peach, this might just be the perfect end to summer cocktails.
TIKI-inspired Boulevardier? Yep.
Together with coopercraft, my good buddy Jordan aka @highproofpreacher and myself have teamed up to create two takes on a Boulevardier. Both recipes will be using similar ingredients in pineapple and sherry but they will be vastly different in flavor and texture but very similar in that they’re both absolutely delicious.
This is my take on a tiki-inspired cross between a Boulevardier and a Jungle Bird. This recipe is both SHAKEN and STIRRED. The initial base is a Boulevardier-riff that combines Oloroso sherry and the 100-proof coopercraft Barrel Reserve to provide something familiar but not overly sweet to compliment the topping (think Garibaldi). This orgeat, salted-pineapple foam is literally the icing on the cake. This topping is shaken to showcase the pineapple’s natural ability to foam when aerated (shaken) providing for light and fluffy top and a strong, complementary base to match. You NEED to make this recipe this week and make sure to head on over to @highproofpreacher to check out his coffee/pineapple riff!
An easy twist on classic Caipirinha, saúde!
This is the national drink of Brazil and I don’t want to ruffle any feathers, so…. Want it more traditional? Leave out the lime wedge + torch all together. Want it even easier than that? Don’t worry about shaking it, just stir it like the locals do! Cheers y’all.
Simple math: Rum + Passionfruit = ❤️🔥

Read MoreThis is recipe is made with a unique spirit I received this recently called Trakal which is made in Patagonia with native ingredients. They use local apple and pear varietals to create the base alcohol and work with local communities to hand-pick seven native herbs and four native berries. Figured why not add more fruit and make a tiki-style cocktail and this one worked out perfectly.
