Following his creation of The Original Mai Tai® in 1944, Trader Vic has created over 200 handcrafted tropical cocktails, -from luau drinks served in festive communal bowls to tikinis.
After his initial success in the San Francisco Bay Area, he took the Mai Tai to Hawaii and its popularity rapidly spread throughout the islands, and now, Trader Vic’s is worldwide. Each restaurant is decorated with hand-crafted and authentic artifacts collected from islands around the world.
