A Taste of Tropical
If you’re looking to recreate the taste of the tropics at home, nothing beats the Mai Tai. Did you know the word ‘maitai’ means ‘good’ in Tahitian? We don’t know about you, but we think this fruity Tiki cocktail is much better than good! A lip-smacking mix of zingy orange and lime balanced with sweet pineapple and syrup. A real punch-bowl favourite!
