Looking for an easy, classic tiki cocktail?
If your "mai tai" contains grenadine, lots of orange juice, or gasp appears pink in color, find or make a drink that looks more like the one pictured here!
It should ideally contain a blend of Jamaican and Martinique rums. You can also use Denizen Merchant's Reserve rum, which is made especially with the mai tai in mind.
