dgonano Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Sounds great Randy! Just had a Mai Tai last week as temps hit the mid nineties in Maryland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jwilly019 Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Never had one, sounds really dangerous.It's absolutely delicious. Very drinkable though, and the alcohol can sneak up on you. My recipe:1oz - Appleton Extra 12 Year Old1oz - Clement VSOP.5oz - Orgeat.5oz - Orange Curacao (I've also used Grand Marnier and Cointreau before, both were superb).25oz - Simple Syrup (Homemade, I prefer 1:1)Juice of a lime.

doubleblank Posted June 4, 2011 Author Share Posted June 4, 2011 The material difference amongst the best recipies is 1) whether to add a couple of ounces of fruit juice to make it let potent and 2) orange or pineapple juice if used.Each drink holds about 2 1/2 ounces of liquor, so they can be dangerous.Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Don't forget the crystallized sugar stick for stirring and gradual sweetness.Similar to these:http://www.candywarehouse.com/whitesticks.html?utm_medium=shoppingengine&utm_source=shoppingdotcomWhite Rock Candy Swizzle Stickshttp://www.thefind.com/food/info-sugar-swizzle-sticks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBOmarc Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 The only addition to this discourse would be to serve it in a Collins type glass that is iced to the max. This libation needs copious amounts of ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
