Mai Tai

Mai Tai means Very Good in Tahitian language

Ingredients

Rum
lime juice
Pineapple juice
Grenadine
Dark rum (optional)
orange liqueur (optional)
Nutty syrup (optional) I used Disaronno, because I had it


Take a  glass filled with crushed ice or ice cubes.

Pour 11/2-2 shots of rum . If you are using 1/2 shot of orange liqueur, then 1 1/2 shot of rum is sufficient. Add 1/2 shot of orange liqueur( I used cointreau), 1/2 shot of nutty syrup (I used Disaronno), 1/2 shot of lime juice. Top the glass with pineapple juice. Then add grenadine.

Add grenadine along the straw, so that it sinks to the bottom and gives a nice shade to the drink. Grenadine serves as a source for sugar, so add according to your taste. Do not stir after adding grenadine.

Put a dash of dark rum on top (looks pretty) and serve the drink.
