Fruity Cocktails like the Hurricane and the Blue Hawaiian Cocktail are some of my favorite cocktails.

I also love a fruity Mojito. One of my favorite Mojitos is a Coconut Mojito or a Mango Mojito.

Tiki Party Drinks

Summertime is the time for celebrating with family and friends. Backyard barbecues and Tiki parties are the perfect time to break out a cocktail shaker and shake up a few of these fruity drinks.

If you’re planning a tropical themed Tiki or Luau party this summer you’ll need a signature drink to serve.

A Hurricane is a great Tiki Party Drink that will make you think you are on a tropical beach enjoying the hot white sand and the wide open blue beach as the waves roll in and wash the sand off your toes.
