About
The classic Mai Tai is one of my favorite cocktails. I decided to make a riff inspired by some spirits from Mexico: Oaxacan rum and Nixta Elote liqueur. This rum has a funky and grassy taste to it that is similar to an unaged rhum agricole. I used the corn liqueur in replace of traditional curaçao.Cheers y’all!
