Hawaii Tropical Rum Drinks & Cuisine by Don the Beachcomber Spiral-bound

Published by
Jose Rafael Hoffmann

Hardcover – January 01, 2001
by Arnold Bitner (Author), Phoebe Beach (Author)

Hawaii: Tropical Rum Drinks and Cuisine is an evocation of another era: the 1950s Tiki Americana craze which swept the US after World War II. The book is crammed with memories and memoribilia of Don the Beachcomber, the guy who created the Zombie drink, and may have created the Mai Tai as well. He started his tropical themed bar in Hollywood in the 1930s. Think: full color photos of tiki drinks, vintage photos, food recipes, even a party guide.
