All these look unbelieveably good. Would love to see you do a mai tai variation where you split the base between Cachaca and a good Demerara rum. Keep up the great work Lui. Also great dance moves my man.
@@Lui_Fern Perfect. Call it the Brazilian Mai Tai. Also a video idea, frankenstein two different drinks together into one amazing recipe. Examples being a old fashioned with a daiquri, a mai tai and a hurricane (call that a Mai Hurricane or a Storm Surge.) Would love to see your creativity go wild.
@@lewismaclean8849I was watching this and was thinking of the absolute same thing before I read your comment. I just bought a bottle of Cachaca and was thinking of doing exactly what you described. I also was thinking about doing a Caiprinha/Mai Tai combination.. cane sugar, muddle limes, add orgeat, curaçao, cachaca and then funky Jamaican rum!
Hi Lui, very interesting show! I do my own Mai Tai rum mix using Woods, Smith & Cross, Goslings 151 and Appleton 8. It works a treat across all the riffs I’ve tried. Do you still follow the English football? Nick from York
Hi Nick, that sounds like a great mix of rums! And yes of course! Been supporting United since 2009. Don't plan on stopping anytime soon or ever. even when it gets frustrating lol
I like doing riffs where I replace lime juice with acid-adjusted pineapple or pomegranate juice. Brings in that nice acidity without having to also add lime juice to the cocktail.
Good post. After a trip Hawaii, I was really disappointed with Mai Tai experience. Forced me to do some research. I am a big fan of the classic - liked your balance but 2 oz of Jamaican rum is a lot. I premix 4 rums that I like and so make it easy to pour. Everyone should find their preference - but I like mixing in some agricole, aged non-Jamaican, etc. make a blend that you like.

Happy you like this one friend!
This is perfect! I picked up a bottle of Paranubes last month and was thinking of using it in a cocktail.
Rye-Tai is one of my favorite Tiki drinks to make at home!

Nice orchid
If you dont have Oregat, an easy substitute is almond extract + simple syrup
Damn it man! My todo list just got 9 drinks longer.
