MAI TAI
Steps:
- Mix together the pineapple juice, orange juice and grenadine in a large pitcher. Add the spiced rum, coconut rum and sparkling clementine juice if using; mix well to combine.
- Cut the ends off the pineapple, and then remove the skin, being careful to trim away the eyes. Slice the pineapple about 1/2-inch thick. Use mini cookie cutters to cut fun shapes.
- Load picks with the pineapple, clementine wedges and cherries.
- Pour the juice mixture into glasses over ice and garnish with the fruit skewers.
OUT OF THIS WORLD - MAI TAI
Mai Tai translates from Tahitian to mean "Out of this World." A fitting description for this cocktail. The Mai Tai came to light in 1944 in Oakland's Trader Vic's. There Victor Bergron, one of the founders of the tiki bar, put together this great drink that deserves to feature the best rum you can get your hands on. Over the years the recipe has changed greatly, disguising the rum under layers of fruit. The first recipe is Bergron's original recipe, the second, one of the many newer versions. From About.com
