If you read through this thread, it appears that a frozen concentrated lime juice (like Minute Maid) is used. It appears that Barton is the gin and the light Puerto Rican rum can be replaced with just about any alcohol! I would assume that commercial brands are used for a lot of the recipe: Passion Fruit Syrup (probably Finest Call) Maple Syrup (some table syrup like Log Cabin) Orange Curacao (I would guess Hiram Walker or Dekuyper) But the real flavor comes from the Coruba Dark Rum... It has a very distinct flavor. And the Barton Gin, in my opinion, has its own notes as well. I wouldn't substitute these two ingredients. ~icky
