nautilus

2 oz Appleton Estate Reserve Rum (Appleton Signature)
2 oz Barbancourt Pango Rum (Plantation Pineapple)
1 oz Crème de Peche (Mathilde)
3 oz POG Juice (1 oz each Passion Fruit Nectar, Orange Juice, and Guava Juice)
1 oz Falernum (Velvet)
1 oz Agave Nectar
1 oz Lime Juice
1 oz Lemon Juice
5 dash Angostura Bitters

Shake with crushed ice, pour into a Nautilus submarine Tiki mug (Tiki bowl), and fill with crushed ice. Garnish with flowers, pineapple leaves, and cherries (ignited Plantation OFTD Rum).
Two Fridays ago, I decided to make a recipe that I had spotted on Reddit that seemed perfect for the Tiki the Snow Away event on Instagram, namely the Nautilus. The Nautilus is a drink for two created at Trader Sam's Grog Grotto Room, and I was able to confirm the recipe elsewhere on the web. Besides my swapping one Appleton Rum for another, I decided to substitute the Barbancourt pineapple-mango "Pango" spiced rum for Plantation Stiggins' Fancy Pineapple Rum; otherwise, I was able to execute the drink the same save for the vessel and garnish. Once prepared, the Nautilus rose to the surface with a guava, passion fruit, and peach aroma. Next, it cruised along with an orange, lime, and caramel sip that turned into rum, peach, guava, and passion fruit on the swallow.

Sounds good! The ingredient is guava juice or guava nectar? If juice - what brand did you use? Thanks as always!
