Freaki Tiki
Tiki cocktails aren't strictly reserved for the rum lovers. In fact, whisky can make awesome tiki cocktails, as demonstrated here with the Freaki Tiki, made with Perth Whisky. This cocktail is sweetened with a modified version of orgeat. Orgeat is an almond syrup that can sometimes take many ingredients to make. In this case, we’ve simplified it to only almond milk and sugar. The nuttiness and Allspice Bitters add a nice complexity to the Perth Whisky and when mixed with some pineapple juice, you truly get a Polynesian tiki style cocktail with tropical fruit and spice mingling together.
