Method
Cocktail
- 1
Prepare and chill glass
If desired, place a coupe or rocks glass in the freezer for a few minutes or fill with ice and water to chill while you mix the cocktail.
- 2
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz aged rum, 0.5 oz pimento dram, 1.5 oz pineapple juice, 0.75 oz fresh orange juice and 0.25 oz fresh lime juice (optional). Add 3 dashes Peychaud's bitters. If the pineapple is not very sweet or you prefer a slightly sweeter drink, add 0.25 oz simple syrup.
- 3
Add ice and shake
Fill the shaker with ice (enough to nearly fill). Shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is well-chilled and slightly frosted. This both chills and slightly dilutes the cocktail to balance the liqueur and juices.

Strain
Discard ice/water from the chilled glass if you used it. Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or a rocks glass filled with fresh crushed or cubed ice to remove any small pulp or shards of ice.
Garnish & Finish
- 5
Express an orange peel over the drink to release oils, then either drop the twist or hook it on the glass rim. Alternatively, float a dehydrated orange wheel on top.
- 6
Optionally grate a small amount of fresh nutmeg over the surface for an aromatic, warm note that complements the pimento dram.
- 7
Serve immediately. The Peychaud's bitters will add a subtle floral-anise layer; stir once gently if the surface shows separate layers.
