It was time for the 2nd annual Mocktails Competition sponsored by Dtric Insurance. It had been a pleasure helping promote this event and safe and responsible driving.

That’s why DTRIC Insurance has partnered with the Hawaii Restaurant Association and some of the state’s best bartenders and mixologists to create Hawaii’s Best Mocktails.

Tiki’s is proud to support local farms from our home island of O’ahu, and also Maui, Big Island, and Ni’ihau, helping create a stronger, more local, food-secure island.
