This formidable creation mixes peach & papaya nectars with a deadly assortment of fine rums.
Classic Mai Tai
The most famous tropical drink in the world, and it was invented only 8.5 miles away at the old Trader Vic’s in Oakland. This is the original formula, made as it was the first time in 1944 with aged Appleton Estate rum from Jamaica. Lime juice, orange curaçao, orgeat, rum, and nothing else- you’ll see why it’s still popular today.
Island Mai Tai
For those who prefer a more Hawaiian-Style Mai Tai, the addition of pineapple juice and a dark rum float will take you to a warm night in the islands.

One of Don the Beachcomber’s greatest, featuring our housemade allspice liqueur and cinnamon syrup, perfectly balanced with fresh citrus- a tribute to the master.
The Grog Shop
Grog was invented in 1740 by Admiral Edward “Old Grogram” Vernon of the British Royal Navy when he ordered that the sailors’ daily ration of rum be mixed with water, because “…the pernicious custom of the seaman drinking their allowance of rum, and often at once, is attended with many fatal effects to their morals as well as their health … besides the ill consequences of stupefying their rational qualities …” He even went so far as to suggest that the sailors mix it with lime and sugar, thus perhaps creating the world’s first tropical drink. Over the years, grog has come to refer to a drink with a robust, spicy flavor, and an ample helping of rum.
Captain’s Grog
Take command with a tankard of this rich brew, full of lime, grapefruit, vigorous spices, and three kinds of rum.
