Another burbon and rye Mai Tai riff along the lines of the Honi Honi is Smuggler Cove's Bluegrass Mai Tai. Excellent drink.

1 oz Bourbon (Wild Turkey 81)
1 oz Bonded Rye (Rittenhouse 100)
1/2 oz Grand Marnier
1/2 oz Orgeat
1 oz Lemon Juice

You could probably flip the standard proof bourbon for your WT 101 and go with a standard proof rye instead and still make a great drink.

I wholeheartedly agree with the opinion that Coruba is orders of magnitude better than Meyers. I consider Coruba to be one of the absolutely essential mixing rums, but I could happily live the rest of my life without ever tasting Meyers again.
