There is definitely grapefruit in the Mai Kai Mai Tai. I'm not saying it belongs there--it just is. That's one reason I don't usually order 'em there, since I make them the traditional way at home, and they're quite a bit better.

Granted, the Mai Kai Mai Tais still taste good, but they're not the authentic Vic's original. But they are better than the ones made with the crummy Trader Vic's Mai Tai mix you can buy. I don't buy into the mix thing--it's gotta be handmade all the way.
