Okay, maybe it’s not that fancy, however… I’m on the hunt for some great recipes using the syrups.  Recipes to be shared with the world, and for inclusion in the first Trader Tiki promotional recipe book, which will be coming up… well, any day now.  But not before you submit your great recipes!

Hey there folks,

if you live in Oregon, and like my stuff and great drinks, it’s a good thing, because I’m all over the place this month!  Well, in two places, but I cover North and South(ish) Oregon.  If you don’t live in oregon and like my stuff and great drinks, well, I apologize, but your travels will be well worth it.

Hey there you fine folks,

I’m just hanging out here in the wonderful weather with a few hundred of my favorite people on the planet at Tiki Oasis.

If you’re in the San Diego area, be sure to drop by tomorrow August 22nd from 10-4pm at the Crown Plaza in San Diego, where I’m selling syrups at the Tiki Marketplace.  The vendors are all open to the public, and there is some fantastic stuff!
