Summer Tiki Takeover Returns to The Bower

NEW ORLEANS (press release) – Lower Garden District hotspot The Bower is bringing back its tropical summertime Tiki Takeover. Available all summer long at both the restaurant and adjacent Bower Bar, guests can enjoy a selection of dishes and cocktails certain to transport them straight to the Polynesian islands.

With a decked-out space filled with tiki decor, along with an array of tiki-inspired cocktails from Beverage Director Mickey Mullins, guests can enjoy sippables ($14-18) served up in specialty tiki glassware. Libations include Lifeguard – gin, pineapple, lemon, orgeat and bitters; Toasted Daquiri with rum, fresh lime and toasted sugar; Bananavardie – rye, banana liqueur, glittered Campari; Pinky Promise – tequila, hibiscus, apricot and lime with an absinthe mist; Mood Ring – vodka, vanilla bean lemonade and butterfly pea flower; and Sipping Next to Vanna White – gold rum, Aperol, vanilla lemonade and lime. Frozen concoctions include Piña Colada with a house blend of rums, pineapple, and coconut, served in a large coconut and Apostle’s Upswing – rum, mint, peach and pineapple.

Executive Chef Marcus Woodham is spicing it up in the kitchen with options like Spam Musubi – sweet soy glazed spam, sushi rice, furikake, spicy mayo; Huli Huli Pork Ribs with pickled jalapeños, pineapple and cucumbers; and Spicy Salmon Poke with avocado & cilantro rice, beets, pineapple, mango and a lime leaf vinaigrette.
