EL VOLCANITO

1½ oz grapefruit juice
¾ oz fresh lime juice
1 oz maple syrup
¼ oz cinnamon syrup
1½ oz Black Blended Rum ❺
1½ oz Pot Still Lightly Aged Rum ❶

Garnish: spent lime shell, mint sprig
Method: Combine all ingredients except overproof rum in a mixer tin with 12oz crushed ice and flash blend for 10 seconds. Open pour into the glass and garnish with mint and spent lime shell face up.

Pour the overproof rum into the spent lime shell, and serve drink. Ignite the rum inside the lime shell once the glass is in place.

Dusting the flame with cinnamon is always a sure-fire way to impress your friends! I was pretty happy with my flame in this photo, but a darker room will produce an even more stunning effect.

CAFE DE CALABAZA

1 oz orange juice
2 oz pineapple juice
1 oz coconut cream
¼ oz allspice dram
¼ oz cinnamon syrup
¼ oz falernum
¾ oz espresso liqueur
1½ oz mezcal espadín

Garnish: pineapple frond, cinnamon stick, grated nutmeg
Method: Combine all ingredients in a shaker with crushed ice, shake, and open pour into mug. Garnish with love.

It's pumpkin spice without the pumpkin! Although this type of cocktail normally makes its rounds in the fall, I still love to reach for something like it when winter stubbornly marches on. The color is nothing to write home about so I threw it into my handmade False Idol mug by Bosko. Cocktail is originally by Brian "shakerofspirits" Maxwell.

THREE DOTS AND A DASH

½ oz lime juice
½ oz orange juice
½ oz honey syrup
¼ oz falernum
¼ oz allspice dram
1½ oz Rhum Agricole Vieux ❽
½ oz Blended Aged Rum ❸
1 dash Angostura bitters

Garnish: three maraschino cherries, pineapple chunk
Method: Add all the ingredients to a drink mixer tin. Fill with 12 oz crushed ice and 4-6 agitator cubes. Flash blend and open pour with a gated finish into a footed pilsner glass. If you don't have a drink blender (I don't) then shaking obviously does the trick.

For the garnish use one spear for three maraschino cherries and the pineapple chunk. Place horizontally on the rim of the glass. It represents V for victory in Morse code •••—

This drink is a certified tiki classic from Don the Beachcomber during WWII, later decoded by Jeff Beachbum Berry, and republished in the Smuggler's Cove book, page 43.

Doctor Funk by Donn Beach

½ oz lemon juice
½ oz lime juice
¼ oz grenadine
½ oz demerara syrup
¼ oz absinthe
2¼ oz Black Pot Still Rum
1 oz seltzer

Garnish: pineapple frond
Method: Combine all ingredients with ice, shake or flash blend, open pour.

This one is one of my favorite tiki drinks. This version is from the Smuggler's Cove book, page 266. In it Martin Cate emphasizes that a funky Jamaican rum is needed to stand up to the hearty dose of absinthe. Jamaicans are far and away my favorite rums so this one always hits the spot for me. Pictured in the background is Hamilton's black pot still, which is the specific rum called for in this drink. However, if you don't have it on hand you can blend two rums (a black and a pot still) to land mostly in the same place, as is praxis in tiki anyway.
