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.
Is it getting MOD in here? You bet it is. This episode of ZTL is completely dedicated to the upcoming MOD Palm Springs event, October 10-13, 2014. Host Rory Snyder joins us in the lounge to give us the down low on all aspects of this weekend long extravaganza. Live music, specialty cocktails, shopping, historic tours and all the hob nobbing one can possibly handled in a 72 hour period. Don't miss a minute...
Read MoreSunshine and Starshine are all over the map in this episode of ZTL podcast. The El Nino cocktail is born, pina colada cupcakes and a heavy dose of Henri Mancini. Find a dark corner, mix yourself our tasty libation and let us do all the rest. Cheers and Mahalo!
Read MoreOur listeners do often ask for a few quick cheats when making cocktails. Although we prefer to hand mix everything fresh, there are times when a quick pre made drink is just what the Dr. ordered. On this episode we sample the Bloody Mary and Mai Tai mixes from Ballast Point. Both bottled mixes pass our rigorous standards and picky tastes. Other show subjects include water saving tips for your bar, Tiki Oasis and Mod Palm Springs updates, and much more.
Read MoreWe take great pride in the many listeners and fans we have gotten to know over the years. On this weeks show we sip a drink sent in my listener Stacie. She adjusted a recipe for a ginger mai tai using our very own Sunshine's Very Spicy Rum or as she referred to it, SVSR. Be sure to mix this for yourself and enjoy the show. We have one of the first updates on the upcoming Mod Palm Springs event coming this October 10-13, 2014, great music by Arthur Lyman, Stolen Idols and the Tiki Delights. Enjoy!
Read MoreWe are celebrating World Cup with a Brazil inspired cocktail and music to go with it. How about a little Samba and Bossa Nova? Art by Eric October, an update on upcoming shows by The Revomatics and an untimely visit by our resident tiki bar psychic Campari Kraken.
Read MoreWhat other free internet radio show gives you free cocktail recipes (good ones too), points you in the direction of the best Tiki Art, enrollment information for the best Poly Pop University in the world and does it all while very inebriated? Nobody! Thats why this episode will be fun for the entire family. And by family we mean anyone over 21. Cheers!
Read MoreWe took a few weeks off from the podcast. Sunshine, Starshine and Kalani are back in the lounge drinking to make up for lost time. We finally share the recipe for Tahitian Exotique, probably one of our most popular cocktails ever, even after 300 shows. Over 14 gallons of this drink was consumed in one weekend this past May. Conversation in this episode includes the most recent of issue of Tiki Magazine featuring US, BG Reynonlds syrups, Rhum Clement and mixing cocktails with Melatonin (See your Dr. first, not recommended).
Read MoreThe 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.
