Like many tiki cocktail drinks, this one requires a bit of preparation to make.
But well worth it for your tiki lounge list of cocktails.
This is a complex tasting drink the gin gives it a freshness, the rum it's depth. And the apricot and papaya nectar blend well together and give it a tropical sweetness. Do not overuse the Angostura bitters, a few dashes is all you need.
