Tiki culture and its drinks is all about sweet and fruity powerful flavours. When you think about Rum based cocktails , you will usually think about classic tiki drinks such as the Pina Colada or the Jungle Bird. The Tiki Express has all the great tastes and tones that these classics embody with its own unique build of ingredients.
One of the key ingredients to this cocktail is the Tiki infused Rum. This brings a very fresh Pineapple and Mango flavour that pairs so well with the juices and the other Liqueurs that make this drink. You can buy Tiki style Rums from stores , but our attitude is fresher ingredients make for better cocktails. Having a good Tiki style glass on hand also makes the aesthetic of this drink look even better , so get creative with it.
If you are a summer person , then this is the kind of drink you will want to have handy on those warmer days. Its flavours and look just scream warm and vibrant.
