Perfect Summer Cocktail: Tropical Mai Tai

Perfect Summer Cocktail: Tropical Mai Tai

by Scott Ferguson, The Rum Story

Create this totally tropical tipple with a brand new rum flavour by Jefferson’s of Whitehaven…

Ingredients:

  • 25ml Jefferson’s Tropical Rum
  • 1 tbsp orange curacao
  • 2 tsp orgeat syrup
  • 25ml lime juice
  • 2 tsp sugar syrup
  • ice cubes
  • crushed ice
  • 25ml dark rum
  • wedge of pineapple, a lime wheel, or a cocktail cherry (or all three!) to garnish

Method:

  1. Pour the golden rum, curacao, orgeat, lime juice and sugar syrup into a cocktail shaker with a handful of ice cubes. Shake until the outside of the shaker feels really cold.
  2. Fill a tumbler with crushed ice then strain the cocktail over it. Slowly pour the dark rum over the top so it stains the top of the drink a rusty gold.
  3. Garnish with fruit like pineapple, lime and cocktail cherries if you like.
