The Diane

This is your MOTHERS blended drink. The Diane is Sunshines answer to mother asking for a piña colada, but not wanted to make an overly sweet and under boozy concoction. Plus cherry juice!

Waimea Blossom

January 22, 2023/ Sunshine Tiki

Waimea Blossom is a cocktail, not a tiki drink. In every tiki bar you tend to find a drink or two that patrons enjoy and request despite a lack of over the top garnish or the missing tiki mug. Tart cherry juice, fresh lemon and two rums are mixed with cinnamon and black walnut. If that sounds like a rum soaked cherry pie, you’re right.

Cherry Bonzai

January 10, 2017/ Sunshine Tiki

Sweet dark cherries with pineapple infused rum and homemade falernum are the highlights of the Cherry Bonzai. A potent cocktail that is uncomplicated with ingredients that should be fairly easy to come by. We believe that every home tiki bar should try infusing a small batch of falernum just once so that you can see and taste the amazing difference that nothing on the market can offer.
