380.5 Tiki Caliente, Room Party Do's and Dont's and the Death of Avocado Toast

Rather than try and recall what we talked about on this episode of ZTL podcast, you really should listen.  This will be our last episode before attending Tiki Caliente 9, the yearly event in Palm Springs where we happily spend 3.5 days enjoying the company of old and new friends of our tiki community.  We discuss how to plan a room party, how to mix 100 drinks at a time, tips for staying hydrated in the desert and a few other odds and ends.  Mix a drink from our list of easy to build tiki drinks and enjoy the show.  

Starshine and Sunshine enjoy our latest cocktail while showing off their Tiki Bar T-Shirt Club shirts. Don't we look like a fun bunch?

Below are just a few pictures from room parties at Tiki Caliente.  Over the years the hosts have come up with just about every themed room party you can imagine.  But, its really about the cocktails.  If you haven't attended a weekend long tiki event yet, this should wet your appetite.  

If you haven't yet taken a look at our friends from Tiki Bar T Shirt Club its time you do,.  Soft and comfy 100% cotton tees in both mens and womens styles are the perfect for your casual look.  Each month a new shirt with a design from an extinct tiki bar, restaurant or hotel/motel.  Each delivery includes a little history on your new shirt.  Its like tiki bar archeology.  Subscribe to the club for 3, 6, 9 or 12 months or just purchase a single shirt.  This also makes a great gift for your special tiki someone.  

Taking a look two podcasts ahead, we will be chatting about the latest book from James Spencer, Vegandisiac.  You can get a copy now on Amazon!  On episode 382 we will mix a cocktail and an appetizer or two from the book, drinking and snacking right in your ears as we tell you about the book, the recipes and how tasty they are.  Stay tuned for episode 382.
