In my opinion, it’s always time for a Tiki drink. No matter how crappy the weather may be, or how dark it is outside, I am always going to say, “OH HELL YAS” to some tropical Rum magic.
Today’s magic comes to us in the form of a Tiger Shark variation called Shark Reef. I started with Denizen Merchant’s Reserve, added Hamilton 151, some tasty syrups, Lime juice, and Pineapple Juice. Refrescando!
For real though, these two Rums make one hell of a split base. Note to self, make as many Tiki drinks with this combo as possible!
Ready? I’m ready. I think I’m going to make another one right after I finish writing this post!
Shark Reef
- 1 1/4 oz Denizen Merchant’s Reserve Rum
- 3/4 oz Hamilton Demerara 151 Rum
- 3/4 oz Pineapple Juice
- 1/2 oz Lime Juice
- 1/2 oz Cane Sugar Syrup (1:1)
- 2 barspoons Cinnamon Bark Syrup
- 8 oz Crushed ice
- Garnish: Pineapple shark tooth, two Paddles to escape from the Sharks!
Combine ingredients in blender and blend for around 8 seconds. Pour into double Rocks glass or Tiki mug and garnish.
Yeaaaaah, so this is really damn delicious. Cheers y’all! SHARK REEF!
