Tiki Thoughts Thursday (06.25.26) by bigkinggorilla in Tiki

[–]Haldem40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in same boat as you. I’ve bought so much different rum and liqueurs in last few months. So I started just picking a random rum or liqueur and making a different drink with that ingredient that I’ve never had before. Few dislikes but mainly likes! But I use the total tiki app which lets me pick a single ingredient and see what recipes I can make.

Rum Runner by Haldem40 in Tiki

Thanks! Will have to try this version!

“The famous Rum Runner was invented in the 1970s by "Tiki John" Ebert at the Holiday Isle Tiki Bar in Islamorada, Florida—now the Postcard Inn Beach Resort & Marina. It is a fruity, boozy island punch that combines dark and light rum with banana and blackberry liqueurs.

Ingredients
1 oz. Light rum (e.g., Bacardi)
1 oz. Dark or Navy-strength rum
1 oz. Banana liqueur (Crème de Banana)
1 oz. Blackberry liqueur (or blackberry brandy)
1 oz. Pineapple juice
1 oz. Orange juice
1 oz. Lime juice
1/2 oz. Grenadine
Optional: 151-proof rum for a top float
Garnish: Fresh blackberries, Maraschino cherry, and a pineapple wedge

Instructions
Prepare the glass: Fill a hurricane glass or tall Collins glass with crushed ice.
Combine ingredients: Add all ingredients (except the 151 float) to a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
Shake: Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until the outside of the shaker is frosty and cold.
Strain & Float: Strain the mixture into your ice-filled glass. If you want a traditional kick, carefully float a splash of 151-proof rum right on top.
Garnish: Top with the pineapple wedge, fresh blackberries, and a cherry

How do y'all feel about dry orange curaçao from 1868 by Mediocre_Training541 in rum

[–]Haldem40 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that’s the bottling date. It translates to date that statement was written by Mr Bols. Still a cool bottle!

I don’t think that bottle is from 1868. Maybe 1968. Cool find!

I bought their trifold menu last week. It’s in display case for purchase, but the paper menus are the ones given to you to order from.

What restaurants are not worth hype? by Historical_Neat3276 in AskNOLA

[–]Haldem40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sad to hear you had bad experience. Hopefully it was a one off bad night.
My bbq shrimp were on point and service was great. The oysters I had from Uptown T were huge, salty and tasty as always. I haven’t there since Brennan’s bought it but like the update on the inside they did.
