Mai Tai

notes: original recipe calls for 1/4 oz orgeat and 1/4 rich demerara syrup - I like the stronger flavor of 1/2 orgeat and omit the simple syrup.

Ingredients

• 3/4 oz lime juice
• 1/2 oz dry curaçao
• 1/2 oz orgeat syrup
• 2 oz dark jamaican rum
• (optional) 1 oz funky rum floater (Jungle Bird is great here)

Instructions

• Shake with crushed or pebble ice
• Open pour into rocks glass
• Garnish with half spent lime and mint sprig
