I had a little fun creating a tiki cocktail based off of the 2015 Super Bowl Half-Time Show this past Sunday. The big takeaway seemed to be the dancing sharks. My wife (her site can be found at  http://www.lishdorset.com) whipped up a framed embroidered cloth shark. For the drink, I thought tropical was the way to go and started with my bustiest tiki mug. From there we augmented it with a shooting star (a.k.a. firework) and top with your drink.

The More You Know

– 2 oz dark rum
– 1 oz Over-proof white rum
– 1 oz pear liqueur (I used Xante)
– 1 oz orgeat syrup
– 1/2 oz lime juice
– 1 bottle of pear cider (a.k.a. Perry…get it)
– 4 pieces of pineapple

Muddle the pineapple in the bottom of a shaker, add everything except the pear cider then shake with ice. Fill the tiki mug with crushed ice and add the mixed drink then top with the pear cider.

I hope you enjoy the drink.

Budmo!
