From the Bartender

A Don the Beachcomber original whose signature was a "Pearl Diver's mix" of honey, butter, cinnamon, vanilla and allspice, gently melted together. This is a simplified build; if you want the real thing, whip softened butter into warm honey syrup with the spices.

Nui Nui
Aged Rum

Nui Nui

Warm baking spice over caramel-heavy rum, vanilla rounding the middle, and citrus keeping it from tipping into mulled-wine territory.

Cobra's Fang
Aged Jamaican Rum

Cobra's Fang

Tart passion fruit and clove-heavy falernum over funky Jamaican rum, with anise creeping in at the edges and a long, dry, spiced finish.

Jet Pilot
Aged Jamaican Rum

Jet Pilot

Layered and restless — cinnamon and clove first, then grapefruit pith, then the overproof rum arriving late and hot, with absinthe hovering over all of it.

Queen's Park Swizzle
Aged Demerara Rum

Queen's Park Swizzle

Cold, minty and molasses-deep, with the Angostura cap delivering a hit of clove and bark on every sip before the drink underneath turns soft and limey.
