When I made that Blood Orange Salad a couple weeks ago, I was blown away that blood oranges could be bought pretty much anywhere this time of the year… and since that moment I’ve been eating them as much as possible – and drinking them is no exception!

Mai Tai-pe of Drink

February 8, 2013

I am finding great pleasure in making up titles that are as corny as possible.  Anyway… with Hawaii on the brain, what better way to get into an Aloha mindset than a Mai Tai!? 

But not just any Mai Tai – a copycat version of Li Po’s Chinese Mai Tai in San Francisco (as seen on Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations).

Here it goes…

Whaler’s Dark Rum

Castillo Light Rum

Bacardi 151 Rum

Chinese Liqueur (Rose flavored)

Pineapple Juice

Mix to taste and drink up – consume with caution 🙂

Aloha!
