NOTES
The origins of this tropical concoction range from the Myers rum company in Jamaica to an antebellum bartender at the Planter's House Hotel in St. Louis. With plenty of versions claiming to be the original, this is a great one. For a bit of effervescence, you may wish to add a splash of club soda.
