The Cellar Restaurant

Tonight’s featured Tiki Tuesday cocktail is the ‘Lei Lani Volcano’ made with Coconut, Guava, Pineapple, Lime, and White Rum.

The Lei Lani Volcano is a tropical tiki classic that originated at Walt Disney World’s Polynesian Village Resort in the 1970s. Created during the height of America’s tiki craze, it became a favorite among guests for its bright tropical flavors and refreshing island character. The cocktail perfectly complemented the resort’s immersive South Pacific theme, offering visitors a taste of paradise while enhancing Disney’s signature vacation experience. Today, it remains a nostalgic icon of vintage Disney tiki culture and one of the resort’s most beloved classic cocktails.

Tonight’s Whiskey Wednesday cocktail is the ‘Billionaire’ made with Pomegranate, Lemon, Absinthe, Peychaud bitters, and Bourbon.

The Billionaire is a modern bourbon cocktail created around 2011 by acclaimed bartenders Dushan Zaric and Jason Kosmas at the legendary Employees Only speakeasy in New York City. Inspired by the Prohibition-era Millionaire cocktail, it was designed as a richer, more luxurious evolution with greater depth and complexity. Its bold balance of sweet, sour, and herbal flavors quickly earned it a place in the modern cocktail canon, becoming a favorite among craft bartenders worldwide.

Tonight’s featured Tiki Tuesday cocktail is the Scorpion, made with Passionfruit, Lime, Orgeat, Orange, Apple Brandy, and Jamaican Rum.

The Scorpion cocktail originated at Trader Vic’s in the 1940s as a large-format punch inspired by a Hawaiian recipe. Initially served as the communal Scorpion Bowl, it featured rum, brandy, orange juice, lime juice, orgeat syrup, and wine. By the 1950s, the Scorpion was scaled down to a single-serving cocktail, with Trader Vic’s 1972 Bartender’s Guide cementing its simplified version of rum, brandy, citrus, and orgeat. Today, it remains a tiki classic, enjoyed in both bowl and individual forms, known for its vibrant flavors and tropical presentation.
