Easy sipping tiki, not very complex and booze is completely drowned. i added 7.5 ml falernum syrup and dram instead of vanilla sugar and 22.5 lime for more acidity to combat the added sweetness.

Really liked this cocktail. Well balanced and very falvourful from the Pimento Dram.
Did find the rum flavouring just OK. So, as usual, we added a 151 Hamilton Demerara Rum float. Brought the cocktail to a new level. Everything popped.
