Episode #2443 – Tahitian Paradise

Many people participate in Dry January for a variety of reasons. The binge drinking starts with Octoberfest and Halloween, then Thanksgiving, then Christmas, New Years, etc etc. So, many feel the need to “dry out” and take a break. It could be the calories, the run down immune system heading into the winter, etc. etc. Here is a perfect solution. It’s a delicious non-alcoholic drink they call a Mocktail. It looks like a cocktail but has no (or a negligible) amount of alcohol, too little to even count. This recipe Jim Hurricane Hayward of The Atomic Grog procured from the Mai-Kai in Florida for my book, Tiki Triangle. The ingredients can be found in any supermarket and it’s very easy. Visit the Tiki Triangle YouTube Channel to see the video (YouTube.com/TikiTriangle):
