Just can't make that flight to Lana'i this weekend? Why not shake up (being a shaken, not stirred kind of gal myself) a few tropical cocktails & invite the girls to your own backyard oasis? A few leis (you can DIY it, really!) & the addition of vintage tiki tumblers will have you feeling like hula girls well before the sun sets.
The Mai Tai
- 2 tablespoons light rum
- 2 tablespoons orange curacao
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 dash orgeat
- 1 dash simple syrup
- 1 tablespoon dark rum
- mint, a pineapple slice, and a paper umbrella for garnish
Then drizzle dark rum right on top. Garnish with mint, pineapple slice, and a paper umbrella for panache!
