This vintage cocktail was recommended to us by Jason E. Clapham who aptly describes it as "a Jamaican daiquiri with Christmas spices."

I made this with Smith & Cross and wouldn't recommend it. Unfortunately, it was too funky, resulting in an unbalanced cocktail. Will try it with another rum next time.

I got a good but manageable funk using a split base with equal parts Smith & Cross and Appleton Estate Reserve. I also increased the dram to 1/4 oz and used ginger syrup since I didn't have ginger liqueur.

Smith & Cross has a high alc./vol. for 60ml. I used Myer's Original Rum.
