Mai Tai (Difford's recipe)
I love Daiquiris and this is basically a classic Daiquiri with a few bells and whistles: orange curaçao, lime juice, almond syrup, amaretto, falernum...

Much for sophisticated cocktail compared to a regular menu item. This recipe would be perfect 5 if the type of rum was more specific. Pineapple rum ranges from sweet syrup to just a hint of pineapple. I think this version requires a more neutral rum like Plantation Pineapple Rum. Any sweetened rum will ruin this version.
