Painkiller

Created in the 1970s at the Soggy Dollar Bar in the British Virgin Islands, this cocktail was later popularized by Pusser's Rum. It's similar to a Piña Colada but uses orange juice and is traditionally made with dark navy rum.

Pro Tips

  • The Soggy Dollar Bar in BVI invented this; Pusser's Rum trademarked the name.
  • Pusser's Navy Rum is the specified rum; other dark rums change the character.
  • Fresh-grated nutmeg on top is not optional — it's the finishing signature.
