On the contrary, I am finding anything makes a drastic difference. I actually have started measuring out the lime juice, and I had a relatiive ship me in some curacao - senior curacao of curacao orange curacao. This new curacao threw me for a total loop. I'm thinking at this point I'm going to order some orgeat and rcs from trader vics online store. I've also decided the next round of drinks will be made with key limes (yellow as I hear it) so I'm sure those measurements are about to change as well. I guess from here on the aim is to use all quality ingredients. What I would really like to get my hands on is some sort of list that compares rums specifically for use in mai tais. Also - does anybody here use martinique rums? I hear its a whole new ballgame with that. Unfortunately being where I am I can't just run out and get some... I think what I'm going to end up doing is getting the list of available rums here in this state and submitting it here for critique. Anybody know their rums well?
