EPISODE 2! Lost Weekender Lockdown: Hippopotomai-tai

Drinks, Food & Drink, FoodKelseyComment

Did you get the memo? We have a new YouTube series! It’s called Lost Weekenders Lockdown, where Kat and I try out very hardest (bless our hearts) to recreate our favorite tiki drinks from Trader Sam’s, the tiki bar at the Disneyland Hotel.

In the first episode, we kicked off the series by making Gorilla Grog, which is a mixed base used in a few of the drinks at Trader Sam’s. This episode we chaotically attempt to recreate the Hippopotomai-tai! We might have been successful. You’ll have to see! And then report back and tell me if we’re successful because we honestly don’t know.

Here’s the recipe!

  • 1 oz lime juice

  • 1/2 oz agave nectar

  • 1/2 oz orgeat

  • 1 oz light rum

  • 1 oz dark rum

  • 1/2 oz curaçao

👉Put all ingredients in a shaker with ice and combine well.
