1st MONKEYPOD MAI TAI
Monkeypod Kitchen by Merriman - Wailea, Maui, Kihei
Made with organic Maui distilled rums and it was deliciously stiff. So stiff that after consuming this on a full stomach (from a poke bowl with rice about 1-2 hours prior), I definitely need to sober up...I'm suppose to be the DD and will see how I am after fries and maybe something else. 😅 Kula organic silver and dark rums, lime, house-Made Macadamia Nut organic, bols orange curacao, honey lilikoi foam
2nd DEALER'S CHOICE: ESPRESSO OLD FASHION
Brix & Craft, Craft Cocktails Wine & Artisan Pizza, Martinez
I asked Corey to choose a drink for me and this is what he had David make for me. Amazing!
3rd TARO TARO!
CANE TiKi ROOM, Paso Robles
This is so delicious... like my favorite ube latte, but spiked! Coconut rum's tropical embrace meets the sweet richness of ube, creating a vibrant symphony of island indulgence. Fresh mint adds a refreshing flourish, while the velvety essence of coconut taro milk completes the tropical escape.
