The lime juice and coconut cream combo is one that had to grow on me, but it was the Bum's Coconaut that totally sold me on the merits of that unusual pairing. I think this is a tasty drink, but imo it lacks the balance and the punch of the Coconaut. I cheated a bit and subbed El Dorado 5 for the light rum to put a little more flavor depth into the rum combo. And Destro I agree that the orgeat can be increased a bit in this one.
