MASA TAI

¾ oz lime juice
½ oz orgeat
½ oz Nixta Licor de Elote
1 oz Rhum Agricole Blanc ❼
1 oz Tequila blanco

Shake // Open pour // Garnish: spent lime shell, mint sprig

Another one that spent too much time on my re-shake list! But again @[email protected] prompted me to finally make it, and ooh boy it was good! Originally by Daniel Zajic, I modified the base spirits since I didn't have access to his choice: Oaxacan rum. I picked something grassy and split with tequila to compliment the Nixta Licor de Elote.

Notes of grass, black pepper, cooked agave, roasted corn, caramel, and nuttiness against a classic tiki base with the rum/lime/orgeat.

Mai Tai Margarita has the flavors of the tropical Mai Tai and refreshing margarita. Grenadine is in the bottom, the margarita with coconut rum is in the middle, and dark rum floated on top for delicious layrs. #MargaritaDay #MaiTai #cocktail

PISTACHIO MAI TAI

¾ oz lime juice
½ oz falernum
¼ oz orgeat
¼ oz SC Mai Tai syrup
2 oz Blended Aged Rum ❸
float ½ oz Strato pistachio distillate

Garnish: spent lime shell, mint sprig
Method: combine all ingredients with 12 oz crushed ice in a cocktail shaker. Shake until a frost forms on the shaker and pour the entire contents into a double old-fashioned glass. Garnish with the spent lime shell and mint sprig, arranged like a tree on a little island.

My late entry for Mai Tai Day 2025 :) The Strato is a really delicate spirit with low sugar content that provides a pillowy-soft nutty flavor when floated, elevating the orgeat. The rum is a blend as follows:

- 1 oz Hampden Estate 8yr
- ½ oz Doctor Bird
- ½ oz Clairin Le Rocher

KENTUCKY MAI TAI

½ oz lemon juice
½ oz orgeat
½ oz peach liqueur
½ oz Cynar
1 oz bourbon
1 oz mezcal

Garnish: mint sprig, dehydrated pineapple
Method: Combine all ingredients in a shaker with crushed ice and shake. Open pour, top with more crushed ice, and garnish.

I know what you're thinking, it's barely a Mai Tai.. but still, it has orgeat and packs a punch on a sunny afternoon 🤣 This version comes from Lui Fern's channel on IG, but when I searched around I found several variations. Original garnish calls for fresh pineapple chunk, Lui used dehydrated, but I had peaches around and felt it complemented the bourbon and peach liqueur. You do you!

The mint is coming in this year, so I've opened the #backsideofwaterbar with a #maitai. It's #tiki time tonight.
