The "original style" have the float but cost the regular price. Jab- you're right about looking sharp. Vic's has always thought of itself as upscale. Quick question about the float thing: This keeps coming up. I've never read anywhere about a float being on the traditional Mai Tai recipe. There's no mention of one on any of the variants on the tradervics website. Where is there a published recipe with a float? Just curious, Martin
