What type of glass is recommended for serving the Tourist Mai Tai?

The Tourist Mai Tai is best served in a brandy glass to enhance its aromatic profile and presentation.

PREPARATION_TECHNIQUES

How should the Tourist Mai Tai be mixed?

The Tourist Mai Tai should be shaken with ice until well-chilled before straining into the serving glass. This method helps to properly blend the flavors and achieve a smooth texture.

What garnishes work well with the Tourist Mai Tai?

A slice of pineapple, a maraschino cherry, or an orange slice make excellent garnishes for the Tourist Mai Tai, complementing its tropical flavors.

INGREDIENT_SUBSTITUTIONS

Can I use a different type of rum if I don't have spiced or coconut rum for the Tourist Mai Tai?

Yes, you can substitute other rums, though the flavor profile will change. For coconut rum, try adding a splash of coconut syrup to white rum. For spiced rum, a white or dark rum with a pinch of mixed spice can work in a pinch.

ALCOHOL_CONTENT_COMPARISON

How does the alcohol content of the Tourist Mai Tai compare to other similar cocktails?

The Tourist Mai Tai, with an alcohol content of 14.69%, is moderately strong. It's comparable to other tiki-style cocktails but slightly less potent than the classic Mai Tai due to the higher volume of non-alcoholic mixers.
