It’s taken several months but I just got an email that one of my sources has found a few bottles and has them on the way. There will be Mai Tai’s for all. I’ll plan on having them ready before dinner on the first night for anyone interested.

Oh yea. Love me some Mai Tais. And since I live in basically the drinking capital of America, I can probably get anything that makes it to our shores. Let me know if your source falls through.

It’s top shelf rum, or in this case two top shelf rums mixed to approach the flavor profile of the 17 year old Jamaican rum used in 1944, fresh lime juice, orange curaçao, and orgeat. That’s it. No bloody pineapple juice, orange juice, lemon juice, grenadine, blue, or nasty, cheap dark rum float.

You'll be crafting your own artisan orgeat, of course? ;-)
