Dennis Gaines - Jason's Tiki Bar

Drunken Monkey

We picked the name for the bar first and then found this drink online.

1 oz. banana liqueur
1 oz. coconut rum
1 oz. dark or spiced rum
2 oz. pineapple juice
1 splash of grenadine (optional)
1 lime wheel garnish
1 fresh pineapple slice garnish

Monkey Mai Tai

When Victor Jules Bergeron (also known as Trader Vic) first served this drink to friends from Tahiti, one of them exclaimed “Mai tai-roa aé!” which translates to “Out of this world! The best!”

1 oz. aged rum
1 oz. white rum
1 oz. fresh lime juice
1/2 oz. curacao or Grand Marnier
1/4 oz. orgeat
1/4 oz. simple syrup

Hurricane

This rum drink is so popular in New Orleans, it’s become an icon for Mardi Gras. Pat O’Brien claims to have invented this drink at his speakeasy, where the password to get in was “storm’s brewin’.”

2 oz. light rum
2 oz. dark rum
2 oz. passion fruit juice
1 oz. orange juice
1/2 oz. fresh lime juice
1 tblsp simple syrum
1 tblsp grenadine

Long Island Iced Tea

Why so popular? That’s because the Long Island Iced Tea succeeds where so many of today’s refined cocktails fall short: It’s boozy AF—nearly four ounces of alcohol against less than half that amount in mixers.
