Mai Tai (Classic Tiki Drink) Recipe

Mai Tai (LCBO friendly version of) Trader Vic's Classic Recipe



           Ingredients:
                  1 oz. Freshly squeezed Lime juice
                  1 oz. Orgeat
                  1/2 oz.Triple Sec*
                  2 oz Dark Jamaican Rum
                  Fill Glass with ice and shake
                  Garnish: drop lime shell in glass as garnish, mint sprig

*Original 1944 recipe calls for Orange Curacao which isn't available in Ontario,by substituting Triple sec it raises the sweetness which is why i upped the lime juice.
Blue Curacao can be substituted for Triple Sec (gives the drink a weird greenish hue)
