**Description:** Elevate your Mai Tai experience with the Tropical Twilight Mai Tai, a sophisticated blend of light and dark rum that dances harmoniously with exotic fruit juices and an infusion of delicate floral notes. This visually stunning cocktail mirrors the colors of a tropical sunset, making it a perfect centerpiece for any gathering. **Ingredients:** - 1 oz light rum - 1 oz dark rum - ½ oz orgeat syrup - ½ oz Cointreau or triple sec - ¾ oz fresh lime juice - ¼ oz butterfly pea flower tea (for color gradient) - ¼ oz simple syrup - Fresh mint sprig for garnish - Edible orchid or a lime wheel for garnish **Instructions:** 1. Brew a strong butterfly pea flower tea and cool it down. This will serve as a natural colorant for the gradient effect. 2. Fill a shaker with ice and add the light rum, dark rum, orgeat syrup, Cointreau (or triple sec), fresh lime juice, and simple syrup. 3. Shake vigorously until well-chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a chilled highball glass filled with crushed ice. 5. Slowly pour the butterfly pea flower tea over the back of a spoon, allowing it to layer delicately on top and create a sunset-like gradient. 6. Garnish with a fresh mint sprig and an edible orchid or a lime wheel for an added touch of elegance. **Glassware:** Serve in a highball glass to highlight the beautiful gradient and garnishes.
