Welcome

And how to use this doc

If, like me, you're a tiki fan but don't have the space or cash to stock an entire bar's worth of liquor, the

Minimalist Tiki book by Cocktail Wonk⁠

is an amazing resource.

⁠

The book teaches you the core ingredients, equipment, and techniques for creating a tiki bar that will be the envy of your friends, without overwhelming your wallet or your space. It also has a ton of info on rums, superstar bartenders, garnishes and much more.

One of my favorite things in the book is the 'Minimalist Classic 30' - 30 tiki classics you can make with a core set of ingredients. I created this doc as a companion to the book to help me keep track of my bar - what's in stock, what's running low, and which of the Minimalist 30 cocktails I can make with the ingredients I have on hand. Hopefully it is also useful to others as you build out your tiki bars too!

Note: I – and this doc – am not affiliated with Minimalist Tiki or Cocktail Wonk in any way, just a fan! If you have questions about this doc or want to share feedback, you can tweet me
