OK, to test my cola theory, I started with
1 oz lime juice
3/4 oz passion fruit juice
1 oz pineapple juice (I made it fresh, canned might take a little less)
1/2 oz orange juice
1/4 oz orgeat
1 1/2 oz white rum
tiny pinch of cinnamon powder
shake with ice and pour into collins glass filled with crushed ice
add several ounces of cola
Jamaican rum float
I tried Dr. Pepper and it was too spicy
Diet Pepsi was close
I don't have Coca Cola syrup but it might give a closer approximation. Syrup would be best since it avoids the dilution that occurs with adding soda.
Tried adding some gin but the flavor was off, and Tiki Ti lists this as a rum drink, not mixed liquors.
It always has struck me that a lot of Tiki Ti drinks taste similarly- I think they use small quantities of strong ingredients like orgeat and cinnamon so no flavor overwhelms the drink.
