First of all, making and serving a good Mai Tai properly takes patience and care. You just can\u2019t rush the fine art of measuring, squeezing, and combining. After years of gruelling research and drinking, We\u2019ve perfected our version of a Mai Tai.<\/p>\n

Half-fill a fairly large glass, preferably something with tiki faces on the side, with ice cubes.<\/p>\n

Keep your liquor in the freezer for drinks like this one.<\/p>\n

Combine:<\/p>\n

1\/2 ounce \u2013 Amaretto
\n1 ounce \u2013 Grand Marnier or Cointreau
\n1 ounce \u2013 White Rum<\/p>\n

Squeeze the bejeezus out of one large lime, until you get every last drop.<\/p>\n

Pour gently over the ice.<\/p>\n

Add<\/p>\n

2 ounces \u2013 pineapple\/guava\/passionfruit juice. If we had access to these fresh fruits in Canada I\u2019d suggest squeezing your own, but the carton variety of this blend works just fine. Don\u2019t get anything from concentrate. That\u2019s just junk with sugar.<\/p>\n

The last thing to add to the top of this drink is:<\/p>\n

1 ounce of dark rum.<\/p>\n

Garnish this drink with a giant wedge of pineapple, umbrellas, monkeys and whatever else feels tropical to you.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve thought for a long time that it would be really fun to serve these drinks setting in a wee box of sand.<\/p>\n

** WARNING ** These drinks can go down really quickly and, halfway through the first one, you\u2019ll actually hear the ocean. Serve snacks as you prepare this cocktails, and if anyone would like a second one \u2014 which they will \u2014 put a nice frosty glass of cold water in front of them while you are preparing the next round. Take your time, and cut each of the liquor portions in half, but fill the glass completely with ice this time. You\u2019re warned, now enjoy. Not recommended for people with depression, homesickness, vision problems, anorexia. Also not for men on steroids, people prone to fainting, the unemployed, or people under the age of 40. Promotes creativity, humour, and confessions such as, \u201cI really love you, man. I really do.\u201d<\/p>\n
