The Mai Tai cocktail did for rum what the Martini did for gin; it gave the sprit the credit it deserved in a delicious cocktail that highlighted its best qualities.

Ingredients

1 ounce light rum
1 ounce gold rum or dark, aged rum
1/2 ounce curaçao
1/2 ounce orgeat syrup
1/2 ounce lime juice
Pineapple chunk, cherry and mint sprig to garnish

Directions

Place all of the ingredients, except for the garnishes, into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
Vigorously shake the mixture for 35 seconds and then strain into a cocktail glass.
Garnish the drink with the pineapple chunk, cherry and mint sprig, and then serve immediately.
