In Search of the Perfect Mai Tai

A few years ago, my husband Michael and I went to Hawaii for a wonderful vacation. We had a great time and we were introduced to the Hawaiian or Traditional Mai Tai. After coming back, we had a lot of trouble finding anyone who could make this drink. Well, years later, we believe we have uncovered the secret. The Mai Tai is believed to have originated at Trader Vic’s.

Now, Daytona Beach is not quite the tropics, but hey, it’s close enough. The video below will show you exactly how to make the Perfect Mai Tai.

I’ll tell you, there are some days after dealing with the Daytona Real Estate market, that this drink just melts the stress away. At our holiday party last year, Michael made 4 pitchers using this Mai Tai recipe. He would have made more, but ran out of Curacao. I hope you enjoy.
