Two Saturdays ago, Tiki seemed like a great way to celebrate the end of a tough shift at work. Therefore, I flipped through Beachbum Berry's Remixed and selected the Molokai Mule that Steve Crane created at the Kon-Tiki at the Sheraton Waikiki Resort in the 1960s. Overall, the combination was somewhat reminiscent of a Fog Cutter. In the mug, the drink offered floral and minty aromas. Next, a lime and orange sip transferred into a rum, brandy, and nutty swallow with a tart citrus finish.
