Love Me A Good Tiki
Recipe created by Linda VoThis cocktail is a traditional tiki style mai tai. It is sweet, sour, and nutty. A well-balanced cocktail that everyone can enjoy. The orgeat can be viscous and will want to separate from the lemon juice if it sits too long in a pre-batch. Kegnado™ will correct the problem of separation and add aeration that a shaker tin provides, leaving more time to serve this cocktail in large quantities.
Single Serving Recipe | 5 Gallon Batch Recipe |
Aged Rum 2 fl oz | Aged Rum 9 Bottles (6.75 Liters) |
Orgeat 1.25 fl oz | Orgeat 4.2 Liters |
Lemon Juice 1.5 fl oz | Lemon Juice 5 Liters |

Notes:
* This 5.5 fl. oz. cocktail is served over ice and garnished with a purple orchid, and is a traditional tiki style mai tai.
* All cocktails are calculated on a standard 750 mL bottle of the base liquor, which will always be the 1st ingredient.
* The recipe for the simple syrup is based on a 1:1 ratio as opposed to the typical 2:1 sugar to water ratio. Because these cocktails are not built on or shaken with ice, the extra water accounts for the lack of ice. Kegnado™ will add the desired aeration for the cocktail in lieu of being shaken.
* The measurements are converted from fluid ounces, to milliliters, to liters. However, the bottle size is what ultimately is important.
* This batch will yield 114.1 servings.
