It's better than a regular Long Island because of the spiced rum but that's about it. Glad I tried it, won't try it again.

I wanted to make this an even more Christmas inspired cocktail. So I swapped out the spiced rum for gingerbread rum, added marmalade vodka and orange gin, to boost the Christmas flavours. It worked to some degree but would be open to suggestions on a Christmas-y substitute for the cola though.

Fruity, yet balanced and well-weighted with just enough spirituous bite. Rum acts as a base while gin lightens and lifts.
