Hi,

The following recipe depends on if you can find the ingredients. But I guarantee you, that it will produce the best Mai Tai you have ever tasted.
Kaniche Martinique rum is so good, my friends and I are thinking of burying 4 bottles in a time capsule for the day you can't get it anymore. (It's what I should have done back when I could still get Sazarac Falernum.) If you find Kaniche Martinique rum in your liquor store, buy it -- whatever the cost.

Behold...

1 1/2oz. fresh squeezed lime juice
1/2oz. Bols Orange Curacao
1/2oz. Trader Vic's orgeat syrup
1/4oz. sugar syrup (made with Turbinado sugar)
1/2oz. Myers
1/2oz. Whalers
1 oz. Kaniche Martinique Rum

Shake with ice and add to a glass containing crushed ice, fresh pineapple, cherry and mint.
