Description
Tiki bar mixology is a lost art, but Beachbum Berry's Grog Log rescues it. This comprehensive guide to tropical drink recipes is accompanied by a twenty-page introduction tracing the history of Polynesian Pop and featuring eighty authentic recipes, many of which have never been published before. Vintage tiki menu graphics and cover art by Exotica artist Bosko add to the book's nostalgic charm. The Grog Log's recipes are rooted in the long-lived craze of tiki, which began in the late 1930s and early 1940s with Los Angeles restaurants like Don the Beachcomber and Trader Vic's. The book's authors, Jeff Berry and Annene Kaye, have gathered a range of classic Polynesian fakes, including the Fog Cutter and the Missionary's Downfall, as well as Manhattan tiki cocktails like the Hawaiian Room and the Headhunter. With its unique blend of history, recipes, and nostalgic illustrations, Beachbum Berry's Grog Log is a must-have for anyone interested in tiki culture and mixology.
