I've posted this before in other places.

Here in ATL at TV, unless you order a '44 they make it from Mai Tai Concentrate (a step up from that crappy mix), lime juice and their crappy dark rum.

Best I have come up with to replicate the concentrate
5oz Water
1.25 cups sugar
3tsp almond extract
1.5tsp orange extract
0.5tsp vanilla extract
Food grade caramel coloring, the concentrate is really dark
Stir continuously and slowly bring to boil and then remove from heat once sugar is dissolved.

Mix 1.25oz concentrate with 1-1.25oz lime juice and 1.5oz ea Bacardi Black Rum and Myers or TV Dark Rum if you can get it.

It taste almost like what you get at the bar here in Atlanta.

If you are planning a trip Thursday is $6 Mai Tai night and they have a band.
