A dimly lit tiki bar that lives in your head. Each and every podcast we bring you a new exotic cocktail followed by plenty of tiki talk, exotica tunes and whatever else your loyal hosts Sunshine, Pumpkin and Starshine care to dispense. Politics, religion and current events are all free game. This podcast is not for the kiddies, so remember to get a sitter before tuning in. Mahalo.
This episode is a re post from Halloween 2009. Its like a spooky time warp for your ears. Either this show was recorded before Halloween, or you hosts have had one too many cocktails. Regardless, it's a good time in the Zen Tiki Lounge. Kalani and Sunshine are sharing stories of Halloween past. What are you afraid of? A little eerie music, some fog, a touch of candle light.
Read MoreSunshine and Starshine are getting ready for the spookiest Halloween yet. The giant punch bowl will be filled with "The Witches Minge" punch. Sure to get all your creeps and ghouls in the mood for a frightful evening in your tiki bar or any other room of the house. Just as scary is the launch of Windows 7 and the awesome videos on youtube. Have you seen the Windows 7 Launch Party? If not, you must. Quite possily one of the most horrible marketing campaigns ever thought up. But we can all sit back and poke fun at the retardedness. We give you plenty of other reasons to listen this week so tune in to hear them all. And, don't forget to tell at least one friend about the podcast so you can spread us like VD. Try "The Witches Minge"
1.5 oz passion fruit juice (you can substitute a passion fruit punch, usually in frozen section)
1 oz pineapple juice (not from concentrate, Dole)
1 oz orange juice (fresh squeezed)
1 oz passion fruit vodka
1 oz amber rum (Mt. Gay works well)
Squeeze of lemon juice
Toss everything in your shaker with ice. Pour into tiki mug filled with crushed ice. Garnish with pineapple spear. You can also make a large batch and serve in a punch bowl, float an ice ring in the punch bowl. For punch bowl, multiply recipe by 10, 20, 30 or more.
There is such a thing as a very Tiki Halloween. Sunshine and Pumpkin give some tips and thoughts on how to add a very special exotic touch to your Halloween festivities. And lets not forget our tirade on those stupid parents of Balloon Boy. The Heene family is one f'd up bunch of people. Those poor kids.
Read MoreAloha and welcome to the only tiki bar that lives in your head. On this weeks podcast we discuss the sometimes frowned upon delicacy known as SPAM. Not really into processed pig? Thats OK. Try our cocktail of the week first, the Mayan Mai Tai. Then try the SPAM. Pumpkin also takes us on another walk through the wonderful world of natural healing and shares some awesome new Halloween trends. Do you need dead babies for your yard? We got you covered. Sunshine introduces listeners to a new online radio station, similar to Pandora but this one has lots of exotica. Check out Slacker radio online or on your mobile phone. Slacker has over 3,000,000 songs, and some of them are even real exotica. Since we took a week off we made sure to answer plenty of listener mail and give some advice for those of you who asked. Mahalo and enjoy the show.
The Zen Tiki Lounge podcast is hosted by a group of friends from our home tiki bar. The show focuses on Exotica Music, Cocktail Culture, Mid Century Modern, Kitsch and the "Island Lifestyle." Join us for a slightly inebriated trip into our dimly lit paradise.
