Tiki is the endless summer, an instant vacation, a sweet and colorful ticket to paradise with no baggage fees.

In Tiki, Brooklyn-based rum expert Shannon Mustipher brings focus on refreshing flavors, fine spirits, and high-impact easy-to-execute presentation. 100 easy-to-follow recipes present new versions of classic tiki drinks along with dozens of original cocktails using quality rums, infused and fat-washed spirits, liqueurs, fresh fruit juices, and homemade syrups. Tastemakers in the contemporary tiki boom, including Nathan Hazard, Brother Cleve, Laura Bishop, and Ean Bancroft contribute original cocktail recipes. As a true aficionado, Mustipher breaks down Caribbean rums and spirits with practical tasting notes and resources. Fans of classic tiki bibles such as Smuggler's Cove and Potions of the Caribbean can embrace Tiki's less retro style and spirit while new tiki fans learn from Mustipher's expertise, accessible recipes, and clear instruction.
