What tastes, feels, and seems exotic? A tiki cocktail, of course. Don the Beachcomber’s brainchild, tiki cocktails, blend different exotic flavors into a drink that quenches your thirst. They are high in booze, lots and lots of rum, but still balanced out with fruits and spices.

The Rum Runner Tiki Cocktail is a masterpiece and testament to the tiki cocktail craft. A few simple ingredients are shaken together and served in a tiki glass full of fresh ice. What could be more refreshing as you enjoy that cool fall evening?

Tiki cocktails are interwoven with their history, with an aesthetic that mimics a romanticized tropical culture. Their color, taste, and even smell are designed to entice you and transport you to a place – an exotic, relaxing place. This Rum Runner Tiki Cocktail won’t disappoint.
