Looking for the best mai tai in San Diego? The Breakers Mai Tai is our signature craft cocktail and a must-try when visiting our tiki bar in Encinitas. We elevate the classic Trader Vic recipe with house-made macadamia nut orgeat, a blend of premium white and aged rums, orange curacao, fresh-squeezed lime juice, and a dark rum float, all topped with our signature lilikoi (passion fruit) foam. This isn't your average mai tai - it's a craft cocktail experience that transports you straight to the North Shore of Oahu. At Breakers, we're the premier tiki bar in San Diego's North County, serving tropical cocktails to guests from Leucadia, Cardiff, Carlsbad, Del Mar, Solana Beach, and Oceanside. The perfect tropical escape without leaving Encinitas.
