Overproof rum, orange curaçao and lime are the main influences in this long, refreshing cocktail. However, crème de cacao adds pleasing chocolaty notes.

I thought it might be too sweet, but I made it according to the recipe (substituting Myer's rum) and it was perfect :)
NB - ditched the sugar garnish, adds little, makes cleanup harder.
