Mai Tai
Mai Tai means “Out of this World”.
It’s a traditional cocktail with both dark and white rum, triple sec, almond syrup, lime and a retro cherry garnish.
It is a perfect drink to take in afternoon or evening, especially in summer.
If you like, you can give a little color and sweet flavor with a blow of grenadine.
Also a bit of sugar suits well because it has strong flavor.
