Actually, I've got roughly 3-4 .99 cent stores near me. closest one's down on San Fernando Blvd. here in Burbank. Haven't been there in quite a while, but when I pass by in the car I see the bottles there in the window. Still have yet to try the other flavors though. Maybe this weekend after I cash my check from work.

Hehehe, I used to work right near that one. A coworker of mine would always buy 99 cent sausages and cook them in the office toaster oven. It used to piss off the next person that would use it to toast their bagel because it came out smelling like sausage juice.

I had to bring this thread back to life. I also had to choose between many very early Tiki Central threads about this topic!
I LOVE SHASTA TIKI PUNCH!
Yes, I know... it's very sweet. So what???
And yes, I initially bought it because its got "Tiki" right there in the title, and a Tiki on the label. I'm not ashamed!
Tonight, to celebrate the rebirth of Spring, and the re-opening of my backyard Granite Tiki Lounge, I decided to run to the Dollar Tree Store, and buy several 3 Liter bottles of this wonderfully sweet, fizzy drink.
I was tempted to post this in the Tiki-On-A-Budget thread since one dollar for 3 liters of such a great mixer seems to be the best bargain in the drink world. (water doesn't count)
Now, on to the important part, I mixed it with:
One shot of Orange Curacao
One shot of Cruzan Estate Light Rum
One shot of Cruzan Estate Dark Rum
One shot of Cruzan Banana Rum
One shot of Cruzan Pineapple Rum
Over ice
That Tiki Fruit Punch stands up to all those flavors and rum quite well!
I may have forgotten the shot of dark rum in the second drink I mixed, but quite honestly, since I'm a bit of a light weight, I was past caring.
I'm loving this drink and look forward to experimenting more with Shasta Tiki Punch!!!!

I just went to the shasta site, and they have three new Tiki flavors listed in adddition to the original Tiki Punch. Tiki Blue, Tiki Mist, Tiki Orange Mango, I may have to try and track them down and give them a try.

Hey, The Granite Tiki -
I've always liked this fun thread & like it even more now that you've developed a cocktail!
What's the name of your new drink? I bet you can come up with a great name!

I'm still working on it, so it's just Shasta Tiki Punch Test 1 right now.
As I modify it, a name will come to me.
I bought 3 of the huge bottles so this could take some time. But I'm enjoying the R and D and hope to have the finished product by next week.

That's a somewhat imbalanced deal....
But what the heck! What good is rum without a mixer?
