The wife and I had a chance to try a fair number of Mai-Kai cocktails that we had not yet gotten around to at this year’s Hukilau. For me the standout among those was the K.O. Cooler. I’ve had my fair share of homespun Q.B. Coolers but it’s not a cocktail that ever gets into heavy home rotation. Mai-Kais version was stellar, and probably near the top of my favorite list. The Zula was another one we hadn’t had yet that I thought was really good and knocked the Shark Bite out of the Top 10. All three of Sunday’s Lost Cocktails were quite excellent as well.

My Top 10 Mai-Kai list thus far (still probably only 75% through the menu) probably stacks up something like this:

Jet Pilot
Deep Sea Diver
Mutiny
K.O. Cooler
Barrel O Rum
Special Reserve Daiquiri (my wife’s hands-down favorite)
Black Magic
Zombie
Yeoman’s Grog
Zula
