Clairin - the raw and grassy cane spirit from Hait

Clairin - the raw and grassy cane spirit from Haiti - is so new to the U.S. market, there aren't many great recipes out there yet. It's fine in small doses, but not easy to employ as the centerpiece of a cocktail. That all changed when I discovered 96 Tears, a simple Daiquiri riff by Nathan Robinson, aka @maitaioneon … Lime juice (3/4 oz), orgeat (3/4 oz) and Angostura bitters (3 dashes) pair perfectly with 2 oz of Clairin. I love the blend of funky, sweet, sour and bitter flavors. Four out of five stars. #cocktail #cocktails #rumcocktail #rhum #rhumcocktail #clairin #homebar #hometikibar #angosturabitters #orgeat #BeachbumBerry

Now live on YouTube! … Posted @withregram • @thehulagirls Bamboo Ben joins us on Spike's Breezeway Cocktail Hour! If you weren't familiar with Ben, he is the most prolific modern Tiki Bar builder, with over 47 commercial bars to his name. We made a cocktail from his most recent build at a bar called Tiki Tom's! I'm praying that this video outputs in time for the show... (I've been having all kinds of issues with this file and with my computer. 😵‍💫)

Something a little different for National Piña Co

Something a little different for National Piña Colada Day from @minimalisttiki ... and soon to become a modern classic: Angostura Colada by @zacoverman. Created more than 5 years ago for Brooklyn's Fort Defiance and featuring 1 1/2 ounces of Angostura bitters along with overproof Jamaican rum, this is not your mother's Piña Colada. The Angostura Colada has become a standard riff for those seeking something more adventurous. It's now available with an updated recipe by @garretjrichard at Fort Defiance's successor, @sunkenharborclubnyc. #nationalpinacoladaday #pinacoladaday #pinacolada #minimalisttiki #cocktailwonk #tikibar #homebar #hometikibar #tiki #tikicocktail #tikidrink

This is the proper way to celebrate! Okole maluna Scott … Posted @withregram • @therumtrader Today I mixed a riff on @theatomicgrog tribute to the Mai-Kai Barrel O’ Rum with better than average results. I utilized a few rums I had on hand and Don’s three rum rule for this experiment.

El Dorado’s old Superior White and Kula Dark are average mixing rums…but adding 1 oz of RumFire and a dash of Bitterman’s Elemakule Tiki bitters brought the barrel a bit of flair. All other ingredients remained the same.

The new owner of @the_maikai_restaurant revealed e
