Mai Tai

The Mai Tai is a classic tiki drink that has been around since the 50's, though the origin of the drink is highly debated, it has been a favorite among tropical drink lovers since. So, what is a Mai Tai? There have been many variations to the recipe, but in this one, we have stayed true to its roots, using rum, lime juice, orgeat (Premium Almond Syrup) and orange liqueur. 

Making the perfect Mai Tai isn't as hard as it may seem. Using high-quality ingredients is the key to making this cocktail really shine. Our Premium Almond Orgeat Syrup delivers the full-bodied depth of rich almonds without any artificial flavors or sweeteners.
