Coconut, pineapple juice, cucumber and sesame oil combined with light rum makes for a most interesting cocktail

Has anyone tried to recreate this drink? I tried it several times, but none of them taste like the ones served in dcp. My homemade version has a overwhelming tannins from the rum or cucumber that can't be balanced. For cucumbers, I used English cucumber and American cucumbers.

Remove about half the peal before blending and straining the cucumbers to avid some of the tannins. I usually also switch the ratios for the rum vs rum liqeur as i find it lacks sweetness
