When my fiance and I were in Hawaii I was constantly being offered Mai Tais(to my good fortune). In my experience, they were made with rum, lime juice, and pineapple juice. That may not be the way Trader Vic created them but they were extremely enjoyable nontheless. They (the Hawaiian barkeeps) did not use any bloody grenadine. Not that I despise grenadine or anything-it's just that I'm with the rest of you in that I am repulsed (and slightly indignant) when I order a Mai-tai and it's pink.
