Jamaican Mangotini image

I remember my first time visiting Jamaica. Two things stand out in my mind the most; The first is walking through the waterfalls at Dunn's River near Ocho Rios. The second... rum everywhere! I remember ladies shoving rum shots in my face trying to get me to sample it, which is hilarious because I was, like, 15! My folks grabbed my arm and yanked me away before I could sample any, but I understand why they were so invested in having people try their rum-- it is among the best in the world. This cocktail is a tribute to Jamaican rum and the island flavors of Jamaica! Please do not leave out the spiced rim-- it makes the cocktail unique and delicious! Cheers!
