Who's Your Daddy? A Mai Tai paternity test

The Mai Tai War has raged for over half a century, and it ain't over yet.  Bandleader Harry Owens claimed he introduced the Mai Tai to the world in 1954.  Trader Vic claimed he invented the Mai Tai in 1944.  Donn Beach's widow insists that Donn invented the Mai Tai in 1933.  At the risk of getting fragged in the crossfire, Jeff "Beachbum" Berry will examine the evidence, and shake up samples of different Mai Tai recipes.  The Bum's special guest, rum historian Stephen Remsberg, will discuss the original (now extinct) rums used in these recipes, and how their flavor profiles influenced Tiki mixologists back in the day.
