Mikehooker what is your Mai Tai recipe? Always excited trying different balances of the same drink.
Typically...
3/4 oz lime
1/2 oz orgeat
1/2 oz curacao
1 oz Jamaican
1 oz Martinique or Demerara
No sugar
Appleton 12 is pretty much my standard Jamaican. When I use Clement VSOP or Damoiseau VSOP I stick with either Senior Curacao or Pierre Ferrand. If I'm going with El Dorado 12 I sometimes use the Creole Shrub as my curacao. But I find it too intense to mix the Shrub with an agricole rum. I'm real happy with quality and flavor of the BG Reynolds orgeat and find that using 1/2 oz of it deems the added sugar/rich sugar syrup unnecessary.
I love experimenting with different rum combos but those are among the favorite. And these are the proportions I start with when experimenting with other combos.
Thanks. . .For us here we have 2 versions at home. We have the '44 and then we have the as served here at Trader Vic's in Atlanta.
