Basically it consists of ~lime juice ~grapefruit juice (just a taste, a dash, didn't look like a 1/4oz) ~rock candy syrup ~a great deal of all dark rums, at least 3oz, not 2 ~the TV grog mixture in a bottle He gave me a chance to sniff the bottle - the overwhelming scent is of cinnamon. So strong that you'd think you could taste it more in the drink. There were also hints of other spices in there. Now the menu lists the taste of pimento as part of the drink, so that's another part. This drink is really much better than the ones I've made at home with the other Navy Grog recipe - a lot stronger too.
