Captain’s Demise

This cocktail, like the Tropical Itch, combines two liquors for extra potency – spiced rum and blood orange vodka, in this case. It's a fun, fizzy drink that also features cranberry juice and a splash of Sprite. You’ll find it at RumFire, a lounge at the Sheraton Waikiki, where we suggest getting a table on the west side of the outside patio for a view of both Diamond Head and the sunset. And just in case you want to change it up after trying the Captain's Demise, the cocktail menu is extensive, with five types of Mai Tais alone. Another favorite is Gidget’s Crush, a light, not-too-sweet concoction of citrus vodka, watermelon liqueur, lime juice, and Sprite.
