309 Mad Libs And Mai Tais
/There is no doubt that the hosts of this podcast always look forward to getting behind the microphone and pouring the first cocktail. When a fan of the show sends us a drink recipe we are happy to test it out. Listener Stacie sent in a recipe for a ginger mai tai that all of us have been drinking for days. Kalani decided to call it Stacie's My Tai. You will have to invest a little time to make Sunshine's Very Spicy Rum, but you won't be sorry.
