Hiya all!

I just had to share this t-shirt design which I found on threadless.com.  I thought it would be a good opportunity to introduce you to our most popular drink…

At the Tiki Bar we serve a famous Don the Beachcomber classic cocktail called a Zombie.  The Zombie is an excellent example of a cocktail made with lots of fresh juice and premium rums with a lot of complex flavours.  The recipe we use is considered by many experts in the field to be close to what Don’s original Zombie Cocktail would have been – with passionfruit, lime, lemon, angostura bitters and lots of big, bold rums.  We top ours off with a flaming passionfruit husk representing the “brains” of the Zombie, to which we add a magical voodoo powder made from Chicken bone and Human blood (no, really!   Trust me, I’m a bartender!).   The voodoo powder – sent to us by a witch-woman living on a small french colonial tropical island in the indian ocean called “Reunion Island” – is dropped into the live flame which throws up a tempest of sparks (often burning the hair off the poor bartender’s knuckles).

We are pleased to say that despite the “voodoo powder” this drink is vegan safe – the chicken was also vegan. :D

 UPDATE!  This shirt is now only available at redbubble.com.  See our followup post.
