How To Make The Perfect Mai Tai

Today on Booze On The Rocks I show you how to make the perfect Mai Tai. This is the Trader Vic version. It is well balanced and out off this world as his friend Carrie would say. This is Tiki no doubt about it. I did however make an error in the video when I talk about lime juice. Let me know what you think about how I handled it.

Do you have a recipe that you want me to make?
