Rather difficult these days to find a barman that knows how to make a Mai Tai. Fantastic series with the Wild Geese Rum.

[@luckymunro7255]

This is not how you make a mai tai, keep looking.

[@CC-TimesTwo]

Fantastic recipe! I will try this version, especially using Disaronno in place of orgeat. I've made mai tai's following the original Trader Vic's recipe, but I find the rosewater flavor to be too strong from orgeat. Cocktails have come a long way and this looks fantastic.

[@thlee3]

Does anyone else get kind of asmr triggered watching his practiced movements. Dont judge me.

[@aitorkevineteomba6431]

kinda yeah

[@mihedas]

that's why i come here

[@nozrep]

this guy is great. Been watching several of these videos for a few days now. I wonder if he is still there or what he is doing now, considering how old these videos are and what with corona and all that.

[@FRANK-oc8ku]

HE SNIFF EVERYTHING !

[@konradmorawski2566]

This is awesome, i don't know how Simone comes up with such great flavor for such a difficult mix, but i wish to have the taste he has... eh.. dreams ....

[@cassidywest5539]

A short strov.

[@the3cl3ctic]

I would have added some more garnish :)

[@NortonNice]

Now that we're all (predictably) arguing about what makes a proper Mai Tai, I'll submit my fave recipe. I got it from "A Mountain of Crushed Ice / A Month of Mai Tai". For the rums, I used Appleton Estate 12 Year (highly recommended, it is amazing rum), and for the rhum agricole component, I used, believe it or not, Sammy Hagar's Beach Bar Rum. I have yet to try a better Mai Tai, and I've had them at some famous tiki spots. Use the rums I mentioned, follow the recipe, and I promise you will have a world class cocktail! TRADER VIC`s SANCTIONED RECIPE from Intoxica: 1 oz dark Jamaican rum 1 oz Martinique rum 1 oz fresh lime juice (one lime) 0.5 oz curacao 0.25 oz each of orgeat and simple syrup Mix all ingredients and shake with ice. Strain into a glass over crushed ice. Garnish with lime shell and a sprig of mint.

[@IIHOGZBREATHII]

Ingredients are on point! Good stuff!

[@victweezy]

Yaaaaaaaaas, Since the Ray and Nephew is all gone that is a traditional method. A rhum agricole and a full bodied Jamaican rum. I too use Appleton Estate 12 year.

[@concho22]

You sir are a genius, love the explaination of why you make it with Amaretto etc. Mad garnish but I love it.

[@bebeysmael1.]

Nice. I love the gorgeous bartender. Very nice.

[@clearevil]

what, no umbrella?

[@spacesyntheticsspacex5662]

Did he lick the spoon and put it back in to lift the sphere?

[@davebitters6505]

no , used different spoon.

[@jacoporadchenko4949]

Yes !! hahahah the spoon is the same, It looks very good

[@sanlorenzo319923]

It looks like you have the basics ideas of a Mai Tai...but not the original recipe. I can understand this a much modern look to a Mai Tai! Well is not the first time I see people trying to "improve" or modefit the drink! But a true Mai tai is simple and less complex: We first star with... Our Mai Tai glass- double bucket class 1). 1/4 lime squeeze. 2). 1/2 oz. lemon Jus. 3). 1/2 oz. rock candy(simple syrup). 4). 1/4-more or less oz. almond syrup. 5). and 2 oz. Trades Vic's Royal Amber rum, or (1 oz. of gold rum, and 1 oz. of dark rum). Ending by: Boston shaker add big scoop of crushed ice, and shake well until shaker gets cool and freeze. Garnish: lime shale, and mint! thats is a traditional original 1944 Mai Tai from Traders Vic's!

[@damianobisognin294]

Tony Castellon I don't think he tried to "improve" the Mai tai. he just said that this was a easy way to make it. i also don't think it's as simple as you say. which recipe are you referring to, the trader vic's one or the don the beachcomber's?

[@ugocollini7920]

Tutto meraviglioso.. ma spero ha cambiato bar spoon per girare il cocktail visto che all'inizio uno se l'è infilato in bocca per assagiare gli ingredienti.

[@cinziasalvatore3491]

Si vede da un miglio che sei italiano, l' ho capito da quando ho aperto il video

[@Gio.Lab.]

Why Amaretto you are Italian right ? you guys have Orzata witch is even better that Orgeat i Don't get it .

[@kevinfager.]

I actually like the Disaronno idea. My bar doesn't have orgeat and that seems like a potential solution to making a more decent mai tai. Our standard recipe is pretty much bullshit.

[@reinheart14121412]

Recipe is bit different from what he says on video. So.. 2 part rum, 1 part triplesec, 1 part amaretto, halflime(about 20-25ml) and a spoon for rock candy syrup?

[@luckymunro7255]

So many things wrong with this recipe. Do not use it. Check out the Total Tiki app for a proper recipe.

[@kevinfager.]

What'd he say?

[@anandlepcha5876]

its too much fashionable n the world need is simple maitai........

[@nicolasnegrete3226]

what about a Piña Colada¡¡?

[@lucitommy86]

Vaya macetero

[@johnbaker6847]

Amaretto? A mai-tai for poseurs. The 1944 recipe can't be beat.

[@Lowraiser1]

Looks good ...apart from touching the ice ball with his hands and dosn´t explain that Amaretto is not an Almond Liqueur ...

[@daisybrown7644]

Here you go: makedrinks.org/trader-vics-mai-tai-original/ Defiantly NO Bacardi, use "Jamaican" and "Martinique" rums only

[@stefanopassiglia]

Too bad for the barspoon lick. I'd expect a classy bartender to use a straw. Apart from that, I want to try this Mai Tai twist.

[@pauloamw]

No straws wasted, wash the spoon, all's good.

[@Marco-dn4ve]

wrong execution, this is not a mai tai cocktail 🤨

[@leonardorizzi399]

hands cocktail!

[@drinkingmonkeys5716]

☝️

[@victweezy]

Brah... Don and Vic would roll over in there graves with Disaronno in his drink. the 44 Mai Tai had Orgeat.

[@anemoia2661]

What is Orgeat? Almond syrup... and what is Disaronno? Almond Liqueur... the flavour profile will be pretty much identical.

[@mihedas]

@@anemoia2661 Disaronno doesn't have almonds in it

[@joaquinsotogonzalez4342]

Floreros¡¡¡

[@jorgemendoza9182]

Is it a garden? 😂

[@marcopirazzoli4097]

😁😁😁

[@archangelmikhael4851]

Somethings up with that accent....a mix of Russian and Italian....

[@ejmac11]

Too much garnish with this guy.

[@ChicagoRiders]

Bazenguera who gives a shit....ha ha

[@donovanmattyrovai5174]

tiki drinks are meant to be extravagant

[@SonOfTheRightHand29]

so many garnishes :/

[@ponymaster2939]

God that ounce of lime will not stand up to that amount of sugar

[@sergiopardocaicedo8884]

Add Some banana watermelon for a fruit salad

[@moinmoinmann]

This guy is so funny :D I still dont like the recipie.

[@PieprziCynamonek]

too much is always too much

[@tedimulyadi5415]

This guy always overacting

[@twitchster77]

Needs moar English. Less gibberish.

[@robertquail5838]

That is not a mai tai Plain and simple Just because you're fancy doesn't mean your right Read a book learn the recipe
