My, My

About this Cocktail

This really just started with the name. I wondered, how can I make a Mai Tai that someone would sip and say, "my, my!" It's really stupid, but the rhyme just gets me. I figured it would need a kick, so I paired the Amber rum with rye instead of white rum and added the Benedictine and bitters for more spice.

Ingredients:

• 3/4 oz Appleton Estate Jamaican rum
• 3/4 oz Old Overholt Rye
• 3/4 oz lime juice
• 1/2 oz orgeat
• 1/2 oz Cointreau
• 1/2 oz Benedictine
• 1/4 oz pineapple juice
• 1 dash Fee Brother's Old Fashioned Bitters

Preparation:

Add all ingredients to shaker, fill with ice and shake vigorously. Double strain into old fashioned glass filled with ice. Garnish with mint sprig and serve.
