This is the only "REAL" original Mai Tai receipe!
Perfectly strong as it should be and not fruity and/or too sweet!
It puts all other so called "Mai Tai" receipes to shame!

Very much like what you'll find at Hawaiian resorts (much more booze in these, though. So what if it's not the original Trader Vic's mai tai? It's good! We didn't use orgeat (almond, as many mai tai recipes call for. I topped these off with a little extra pineapple juice, as my family prefers a less boozy taste.

mai tai recipe we have found since trying to replicate the ones at the hale koa hotel in Hawaii. Many places serve what is essentially fruit punch or kool-aid type drink. This is the real thing. Yes, they are strong, but really good- just sip it over ice! Found the grenadine unnecessary though. To make large batches substitute "cups" or any amount you need for "oz". We served these at a dinner party and they were gone in a flash- had to keep making more! Thanks!
