Bayou Swamp Slush

July 13, 2019/ Sunshine Tiki

Our original hostess Pumpkin loves her blendy drinks. Sunshine rarely creates one of these concoctions as he feels they are generally fairly “cruise ship” in flavor and overly sweet for no reason. Tangerines, clementines and Satsumas all have similar flavor but the tangerine or Cutie is most widely available in todays supermarket. For that reason this drink uses the fresh juice of tangerine along with a Satsuma liquor made by Bayou. Finding this citrus spirit may be challenging and you can easily substitute a 30% ABV sweet orange spirit if needed.

Tansuma

July 14, 2018/ Sunshine Tiki

Here is an UP drink that is bright in citrus flavor with hints of spice and a touch of bitter. Tansuma is simply a play on the words Tangerine and Satsuma, two varietals of citrus that work well in this cocktail interchangeably.

Tangerine Cello & Blood Orange Sipper

January 13, 2014/ Sunshine Tiki

Tangerine Cello is easy to make and a really nice sweet addition to many drinks including iced tea, cocktails and soda water. Make some in the winter when fruit is ripe and again in fall when the next crop comes in. Give a bottle as a gift and include the simple cocktail recipe we included with this entry.
