Anyone have any good ideas for a Purple tiki Drink?

Having a special event in the TomAndrea Lounge to mourn The Purple One's Passing.

Mahalo!

There's a nice looking one by JenTiki here:

Thanks! I was just about to post the same link here! I'm still tweaking the ratios, but it's something like this:

The Paisley Park Swizzle

3 oz white rum (I used Cana Brava)
.5 oz lemon juice
.5 oz cinnamon syrup
.25 oz simple syrup
about 8 blueberries and 4 blackberries

Put the berries and lemon juice in the glass and muddle them to a pulp.
Add the rum, cinnamon syrup, and simple syrup (you might want to reverse the ratio on the syrups as mine was a bit too spicy and not quite sweet enough).
Fill the glass with crushed ice and swizzle until the berries have worked their way up into the drink and the outside of the glass is frosty.
Garnish with mint, lemon slice, and a Raspberry Beret.

You'll want to use large diameter straws since the berry bits kept clogging my narrower one.

If you put it on a written menu, please credit http://www.rumspiration.com.
Thanks!
