Mai Tai

Glass: Highball or Collins
Garnish: pineapple wedge, cherry. mint leaf, speared on a toothpick and railed on the glass edge

30mls Bacardi white rum
30mls dark rum
15mls Cointreau
15mls Amaretto
15mls lime juice
15mls orange juice


Half-fill a tall glass with ice. squeeze the juice of one fresh lime (around 15mls, give or take) and run the peel around the rim of the glass. Pour in the other ingredients, and stir vigorously. garnish and serve with straws.

This is three full shots of alcohol, so it really packs a punch. For a longer drink, serve with more ice and top with some cold pineapple juice and a dash of grenadine for a 'Mai Tai Sling'.
