I scored this Hamilton Beach Model 18 mixer for 40 bucks, almost 100 years old and still works. Just refreshed the motor brushes and replaced the jacked up cord. Cant wait to make some cocktails with this bad boy.
I am heading down to Palm Springs next week any Tiki recommendations? I have been to the Reef, but wanted to check out some other bars.
Buy VM/ Frantech I have had them for years unlimited bandwidth reliable and great uptime. Their availability is limited but they are always adding additional hosting. So check back it is so worth the wait. Also reach out to them over email sometimes they will stand up more resources.
I was in Vegas for one night and had to choose what tiki bar to go to. My go to is usually Golden Tiki but I chose to hit up Frankie's, it did not disappoint. It was crazy slow which is super rare, but it allowed us to chat with the bartender and she was great, fun conversation, super good drinks, and lots of knowledge of tiki culture.
My wife and I ordered three drinks in total the Kahiki Kai, Lapu Lapu, and the Mai Tai. The drinks where delicious, and strong. I had the lapu lapu and the mai tai and was feeling it.
The ambiance was cool as well, the original design was created by Bamboo Ben, who also created the decor inside Disney's Enchanted TIki Room.
I recommend checking it out if your in town.
Hello everyone, as a member of the r/tiki subreddit for quite a long time, and after the Reddit drama, I figured why not give the tiki folks a place to share in the fediverse. This community is unapologetically inspired by r/tiki as you may have noticed from the description and guidelines. I can only hope for those who jump ship from Reddit can feel they have a safe harbor here.
