Mai Tai Cocktail Recipe
Mai Tai is a popular rum-based cocktail originating from Oakland in 1944. Its name means good in Tahitian. In addition to rum, which can be both spiced and coconut flavored, the cocktail contains lime juice, orgeat syrup, and orange liqueur, typically curaçao, but in some versions it can include grapefruit juice, bitters, or grenadine.
All ingredients should be vigorously shaken with ice for a few minutes before the cocktail is strained into an old-fashioned glass.

1 tablespoon orange curacao
2 teaspoon orgeat syrup
25ml lime juice
2 teaspoon sugar syrup
