My version of the Bali Hai Mai Tai. This is for the serious booze hounds:

1 oz. - Meyers Dark Rum
1 oz. - white rum (any, I use Bacardi Superior)
1/2 oz. - Orgeat syrup
1 oz. - Sweet n Sour

fill a mai tai glass with crushed ice, pour all ingredients directly into the glass. Pour glass contents into shaker or another bar mixing glass to gently mix contents (don't shake, just pour into the glass once). Then, pour back into mai tai glass, squeeze 1/4 lime wedge, garnish with scewered marachino cherry & pinapple chunk.

These will really get you hammered quick and they have a nice balance of flavors. And easy to measure and mix quickly!

My wife also likes to float a little Demerara rum on top for an extra zing!
