HALEKULANI

tropical
whiskey

The name Halekūlani is a combination of Hawaiian words (hale + kū + lani) meaning "House Befitting Heaven" The Halekulani cocktail is a classic Hawaiian drink, created in the 1930s at the Halekulani Hotel's House Without a Key lounge in Waikiki. Unlike many tiki cocktails, which are rum-based, the Halekulani features bourbon as its base spirit. It's known for its refreshing, citrus-forward flavor profile, with a subtle sweetness derived from demerara syrup and a hint of grenadine.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2–2 Oz. (45–60 ml) Bourbon or rye whiskey
  • 1/2 Oz. (15 ml) Simple syrup
  • 1/2 Oz. (15 ml) Fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 Oz. (15 ml) Orange juice
  • 1/2 Oz. (15 ml) Pineapple juice
  • 1 Barspoon (5 ml) Grenadine syrup
  • 1 Dash Angostura bitters

Method

    Shake whiskey, syrup, lemon juice, orange juice, pineapple juice, grenadine and Angostura bitters with ice until chilled. Fine-strain into a chilled cocktail glass, or serve in a lowball glass over fresh crushed ice for a tiki-style presentation.
