"Two friends launched this tiny tiki bar far off the tourist path in Wailuku. After a stroll around town to see the truly exceptional street murals, take a seat on the patio and sip on a tropical libation served in a ceramic mermaid cup. The Hollaback Sazarac pairs rye with okolehao (a plantation-era spirit made from tī root), absinthe, and durian bitters — and I dare you to find a more exotic twist on the classic cocktail. Hit up happy hour, when the barkeeps pour daiquiris straight up for $8. Tasty bar snacks include fresh guacamole, oysters, and a wicked grilled cheese with gochujang butter. Know before you go: Check out Thirsty Thursday’s two happy hours at 3 p.m. and 10 p.m." - Shannon Wianecki
