Tiki Cocktail Spirits: Crystal Head Vodka, a very cool spirit for your tiki bar.

Learn all about the new Crystal Head Vodka.  
Bring some voodoo to your tiki bar.

Right away we have to tell you, the co-founder of Crystal Head Vodka is the actor and SNL star Dan Aykroyd. This alone for me made the purchase a must. Well that and the really cool clear skull bottle. I have always had a fondness for skulls. And it does look fantastic on the shelf of the tiki bar I must say.


It is definitely a conversation starter. People always ask me about it when they see it at the tiki bar.

I will keep the bottle after the vodka is gone.

Crystal Head Vodka

Crystal Head Vodka is manufactured by Diamond Estates Wines and Spirits Ltd. Located both in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

The main aspect of this vodka is that it is quadruple-distilled, triple-filtered through charcoal and get this, triple-filtered through Herkimer diamond crystals. 

The clear skull bottle is made by Bruni Glass and is packed nice in a rigid cardboard box and a wooden bottle closure for extra protection.

Overall, the vodka has a very smooth taste, from the major distillation process mentioned above. It also has hints of a little bit of licorice at the end.

As a added bonus, it looks real cool if back lite with colored lights.

All in all you gotta try it with your favorite vodka based tiki concoction.

For tiki bars to keep relevant and evolving we must think out of the rum box, and embrace the new era of vodkas and tequilas.

Classic Tiki Drink Recipes: The Cuban Sangria Recipe

Tiki and Island Drink: How to make a Great Cuban Sangria for your Luau or Tiki Party.

The word Sangria gets it's name from the spanish word for blood because of the red or ruby color. Summer is the best time for Sangrias. Great Sangrias can be hard to find. This is because Latin families hold their recipes as family secrets handed down from parent to child.

A sangria is a mix of wine, tropical fruits, fruit juices and sometimes a extra spirit to give it a little kick. Liquors used are usually Brandy, Triple sec, or Rum. Sometimes sugar is added for a extra sweetness.

It is usually made with a red wine, but sometimes a white wine is used.

One of the secrets of a good Sangria is letting it sit and infuse. You can let it infuse for a few hours or a few weeks.

Cuban Sangria Recipe:
Ingredients:

• 1 bottle burgundy or red wine
• 1/2 bottle of a light rum (Cruzan, Bacardi, etc.)
• 4 shots Cointreau or Triple Sec
• 6 shots vodka ( (Smirnoff, Grey Goose, Absolut, Skyy, etc.)
• 4 shots Grand Marnier
• 1 liter seltzer water
• 1 pineapple, sliced (or can)
• 4 Granny Smith apples, sliced
• 6 oranges, sliced
• 1 quart of pineapple juice
• 1 quart of orange juice
• 2 limes, sliced
• sugar to taste

Preparation:Slice the fruits and place in a container. Add the fruit juice. Add alcohol and then sugar. Before serving add ice and seltzer.
