THE WILD WEST INDIES: An all-new seminar derived from Beachbum Berry’s upcoming book, Potions of the Caribbean: 500 Years of Tropical Drinks and the People Behind Them.
Join the Bum on a booze cruise through time to Panama 100 years ago, when canal workers met their maker in Colón’s notorious Bottle Alley…to Trinidad, Haiti and Cuba between the wars, where Don The Beachcomber and Trader Vic were inspired to create the Tiki drinks we know and love today…and to Jamaica in the Jet Age, where those Tiki drinks came home to roost in Montego Bay’s glamorous midcentury-modern resorts.
Featuring panelists Stephen “Professor” Remsberg (America’s greatest authority on rum) and Joe “Leisure Master” Desmond (Tiki drinkslinger at New York’s infamous Rhum Rhum Room).
UPDATE: Beachbum Berry will have 100 of his new Navy Grog Ice Cone Molds for sale, manufactured by Cocktail Kingdom, and will be autographing boxes after the presentation!
