It works well and makes the Mai Tai taste much more like what you get in the bar at TVs. Other Mai Tai mixes are kind of disappointing. There is one by Tahiti Joe's and one by Mr. & Mrs. T as well as a couple of others. Both have a strange mix of friuty and chemically tastes that are very un- Mai Tai like. If using a mix, stick with Vic's.
