What do you find spicy? I don't think I missed anything though as the last drink of the night I suppose it was possible.

3/4 ounce fresh lime juice
1 ounce orange juice
3/4 ounce falernum
1/2 ounce fassionola
1 ounce gold Jamaican rum
1 ounce dark Jamaican rum
1/4 ounce grenadine
2 dashes Angostura bitters
1/4 teaspoon Pernod

What falernum did you use? I make it with my homemade version of Falernum #8. That combined with bitters and a 1/4 teaspoon of Pernod (way more than I put in any other drink) gives it more of a spicy kick than a sweetness to me.

I agree with Ad about trying the SOS. That's definitely more on the sweet side and one I need to revisit soon. While it's Mario's take on the Three Dots and Dash, it's not like any I've ever tried. A great drink in it's own right though, and it goes quick. Make it a double!
