Skyy Launch Party Presenting Texas Grapefruit and Pacific Blueberry

We had another amazing launch party hosted by Southern Wine & Spirits, as Skyy infusions debuted their mouthwatering Texas Grapefruit infusion and Pacific Blueberry vodkas. To see all the photos go to: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10152654081912452.1073741841.46208052451&type=3&uploaded=83

It was the perfect night for a party, with KB Riley providing a live soundtrack and ending with their upbeat version of Bruno Mars’ “Uptown Funk”. The sun set in a brilliant orange glow, highlighting our beautiful fresh Texas grapefruit candlelit centerpieces and providing a contrast to the iconic Skyy blue bottles. 


Our beautiful bartenders were mixing drinks all night to 150 of Hawaii’s finest industry folk hailing from restaurants, bars, retail locations, and hotels. Some crowd-favored cocktails were the Horizon Shine, featuring Skyy Texas Grapefruit, orange juice, pineapple juice, and a splash of lime; and the Pacific Breeze, a refreshing blend of Skyy Pacific Blueberry and lemonade. 

Chef Ronnie worked his magic once again with an array of perfectly paired dishes, which included an original Grapefruit Ahi Crudo, a Watermelon Salad with Feta and Blue Berries, Blue Berry Glazed BBQ Baby Back Ribs, and two of our house favorites: Garlic & Togarashi Peppered Edamame, and Coconut Shrimp. Chef personally manned the Live Action Smoke Meat Station, where he handed out fragrant Smoke Meat spoons that were hot off the wok.

 

From the giveaway Blue Tongue Specialty Tiki Mugs, to the take-your-own-photo booth provided by Photo Box Hawaii, to our talented bartenders, servers, and greeters, this was a definitely a launch party for the books. Tiki’s is proud to also serve Skyy’s Citrus, Georgia Peach, Vanilla Bean, Moscato Grape, Wild Strawberry, Pineapple, Blood Orange, Coconut, Dragon Fruit, Cherry, Passion Fruit and Raspberry flavors. We hope to see you here at Tiki’s Grill & Bar enjoying the fruits of their labors very soon!

  Made with natural ingredients, these new infusions blend juicy grapefruit and ripe blueberry with SKYY’s premium distilled vodka, creating two vibrant spirits that are perfect for any cocktailing occasion. SKYY’s progressive spirit means selecting only the finest natural ingredients to capture the essence of each fruit flavor. Pairing its proprietary, innovative infusions process with one of the juiciest grapefruit varietals, SKYY Infusions Texas Grapefruit has captured the true taste of fruit ripened on the tree until the peak of perfection. In recent years, US consumption of fresh blueberries has been on the rise. Tapping into the current trend towards natural, infused products, SKYY Infusions Pacific Blueberry has bottled the essence of fresh blueberries and offers smooth vodka bursting with intense, fruit-forward, ripe blueberry aroma and taste.

Local Oahu Made Rum - Ko Hana! Tiki's private tour.

Kõ Hana Hawaiian Agricole Rum. Distilled from rare, native Hawaiian sugar cane.


Robert Dawson and Jason Brand take the staff on a tour of the operations. 

Making rum from fresh-pressed sugar cane juice, in the style of a rhum agricole from Martinique and cachaca from Brazil. 

Whereas 99 percent of rum starts with molasses, the byproduct of industrial sugar production, Kō Hana is making rum from hand-harvested, fresh-pressed sugar cane juice, in the style of rhum agricole from Martinique.

And the beauty of cane juice rum is that Kō Hana can produce rums from single varietals of sugar cane. Each month, Dawson & Brand uses a different sugar cane to distill their rum.

Tiki's Grill & Bar is proud to be one of the few spots on Oahu to serve Kõ Hana Hawaiian Agricole Rum.

Yelpapalooza‬ Honolulu AIDS Walk Salmon Tartar Cones

 Yelp Hawaii​  helped rasie $3,732 for this year's‪ #HonoluluAIDSWalk‬.   Tiki's Grill & Bar rocked it out at this year's rock-themed  ‪#yelpapalooza‬, by staff donating their time and giving away  Salmon Tartar Cones.

( Invite your friends and family to walk on 4/19.) 

This exclusive event, besides being a blast, was for a great cause: all donations went toward the  Life Foundation & the Honolulu AIDS Walk. 

Our Executive Chef Nasuti, hit it out of the park once again with his delish Salmon Tartar Cones. 

Minced with onion and yuzu tobiko, this savory lollipop with an edible tuille cone was topped with avocado mousse and a bright red jalapeno! 

Our rock star Tiki's staff helped make the entire event a success, with Daniel Picketts and Jon Hollinger banging out the cones at record speeds, and Nadia Fale and Jenni Liu handing out the treats to Yelpers who kept coming back for seconds and thirds. 



 The three bands that rocked the house throughout the night all gave stellar performances, especially our friends The Push-O-Verse, who came straight from their gig at Yelpapalooza to perform at Tiki's. 

After all was said and done, Honolulu's First Ever Yelpapalooza was a smash hit, and we at Tiki's Grill & Bar feel fortunate to be a part of such a great cause with all the rock stars of the Yelpiverse.
