Growing up in New England, my first exposure to tiki is through Chinese American restaurants.
When you order a mai tai, it comes out and it's red! It also tastes like nothing but fruit juice and grenadine.
Next you order a zombie and it looks surprisingly like the first drink you had. And shocking it tastes just about the same as well.
So I wanted to create a cocktail that would invoke these same feelings, but would actually be good!
