I didn't have any white overproof rum so I used Plantation O.F.T.D. It was pretty rum forward but pretty enjoyable.

I love rum. However, I do not like blended drinks. Decided to try this, but did a dry shake and poured it over crushed ice. Outstanding.
You can still drink a taste of the cocktail without all that annoying pulverized ice. We use a small batch coconut cream made in California which is not sweet. Over crushed ice you can taste the rum and various components of the cocktail. I would make again the exactly same way.

agreed! my blender is junk and i didn't want to use it, but it turns out this is very good over crushed ice
