HELP!: Mai Tai mishap with Wray & Nephew rum - Tiki Drinks and Food

A serving size is usually 1/2 a shot. Wray & Nephew White Overproof is actually very delicious with cranberry juice, Ting (grapefruit soda) or in traditional Jamaican Rum Punches. The easy way to make the traditional Jamaican rum punch is to think of this formula: 1 of sour (lime juice) 2 of sweet (simple syrup) 3 of strong (1 1/2 Wray & Nephew Overproof rum, 1 1/2 Appleton rum) 4 of weak (orange and/or pineapple juice)
