A #maikaimonday throwback to October 2018 and the @chairmansreserveofficial Mai Tai Challenge. Oh how I miss special events like this, and the opportunity to rub elbows (and taste cocktails) with legends like @official_beachbumberry ... Okole maluna! #maikai #rum #maitai #beachbumberry

The third edition of @minimalisttiki from @cocktai

The third edition of @minimalisttiki from @cocktailwonk arrived just in time for the weekend, now featuring 30 new recipes, aka Classic Thirty Modern Takes. Some of today's top bartenders put their own spin on Tiki's foundation drinks. I'm loving the Donga Daiquiri by @threeofstrong, a riff on Don the Beachcomber's Donga Punch featuring lime, grapefruit, cinnamon, aged and unaged agricole rhum, plus Bitter Truth Jerry Thomas' Own Decanter Bitters. Very well crafted and better than the original, which I made for comparison's sake. Congrats on the excellent new edition, Matt Pietrek and @clicky_chick! #tiki #tikicocktail #tikicocktails #tikidrink #tikidrinks #minimalisttiki #cocktailwonk #tikibar #homebar #hometikibar #atomicgrog #donthebeachcomber #agricolerhum

Today we mourn the passing of a Mai-Kai legend 😢 ...... Posted @withregram • @the_maikai_restaurant It is with great sadness that we share the passing of one of the original Mai-Kai entertainers from the 1960’s – Toti Terorotua.Toti was not only an outstanding musician and entertainer, he was a great friend and part of what made the Mai-Kai one great big family. He was a highly regarded musician in Tahiti before coming to the US, creating two classic Tahitian albums with his namesake band “Toti’s Tahitians”. You can still hear songs from his albums, along with his unforgettable voice, softly playing in the background on the Mai-Kai’s nightly soundtrack.To our dear friend Toti we say:“E tae noa tu ai. Te mahana e hoi mai a vau. Ei reira tatou. E himena faahou. E maururu a vau.”“We will miss you so. But dreams will keep us near you. We know we’ll meet again. Farewell for just a while. For just a little while.” #maikai #maikairestaurant #polynesia #polynesianshow #polynesianislanderrevue

Our deepest sympathy to the many friends and family of Brad Smith, aka @beastofshadows and head bartender and general manager at Beachbum Berry's @latitude29nola. His passing is a sad loss for the cocktail world. It was a pleasure meeting Brad at The Hukilau 2016 during his Tiki Tower Takeover appearance with the Beachbum.

I was very happy to replenish my @appletonestate1749 collection for National Rum Day. Very eager to try the new 86-proof, 8-year-old Reserve blend. The 80-proof Signature remains the same, but the hefty new bottle will come in handy. My local store didn't have the new 12-year-old Reserve Casks bottling, but I hear it's pretty much unchanged from already outstanding, 86-proof Rare Blend. #rum #nationalrumday #jamaicanrum #appletonrum #appletonestate

Can’t wait for this! ...... Posted @withregram • @floridarumsociety Maggie’s Farm Hidden Harbor White Rum was just approved for distribution in Florida. It is a collaboration between @maggiesfarmrum & @hiddenharborpgh Tiki Bar in Pittsburgh. This blend of 7 different rums was specially blended for drinks like daiquiris and includes MF White, MF Queen’s Share and rums from Jamaica, Barbados, Martinique, Trinidad and Guyana. It has a very light funk mixed with the grass of the agricole... it makes it almost feel like a clairin. If you are looking to pick some up, it is distributed by @lib_dib - ask your local store. 🍹🌺🌴 #rum #hiddenharborpgh
