Not only is the mai tai a summer staple, but it's also one of the most well-known Tiki drinks in the world. It's loaded with rum, Curaçao liqueur, orgeat syrup, and lime juice and if you want to get really fancy, garnish it with pineapple, limes and more. This recipe is courtesy of William Elliott/Maison Premiere.
