Double the rum, a splash of lime, orange curaçao, and a touch of orgeat—Jeff “Beachbum” Berry’s dangerously smooth take on this tiki classic will have you saying exactly what it’s named for: Mai Tai, have another.

Notes
For an authentic tiki experience, use freshly squeezed lime juice. If you don’t have a cocktail shaker, a mason jar with a lid can work in a pinch. Serve immediately to enjoy the full flavor and chill of the cocktail. Consider pairing with tropical music and decor for a full tiki vibe.
