Thirsty Thursday - Thank you Drinks Tube
It's heating up here in Oz and with our #waterchallenge this month, I am slurping on some major liquid action. So today I thought I would mix it up a little and share some inspo drinks to quench your thirst from some of Jamie's Drinks Tube gurus's.... when you're not hydrating on water that is! Enjoy!
I would have to say a Mai Tai (which is Tahitian for "good") would be one of my fave tropical drinks - this South Pacific beverage is pure sunshine in a glass! It takes me back to our pre wedding drinks night in Hawaii May 21, 2006.
Equipment
- A shaker
- A strainer
- Short glass
Ingredients
- 1 ½ parts Bacardi Superior rum
- ½ part Cointreau liqueur
- ¼ part lime juice
- 1 ½ parts pineapple juice
- 1 ½ parts orange juice
- 1 dash grenadine
- 1 part Bacardi Black rum
- Cubed ice
- To garnish: Lime wedge & mint
How to mix
- Put lots of ice and all of the ingredients into a shaker and shake for about 20 seconds to chill the liquid really well
- Strain the mix over ice (you could fill your glass with ice and pour the mix straight in, or – to look extra flash – strain it over ice separately and then add to a glass containing fresh ice). If you still have the limes you squeezed earlier, use a wedge as a garnish with some mint
