Allspice is a critical element of tropical drinks and cuisine. The berry, called “pimento” in Jamaica, gets its modern name from its flavors of clove, cinnamon, nutmeg and pepper. While in Jamaican homes allspice dram usually lives in the kitchen as a flavoring, the pioneers of tiki drinks in the 1940s immediately seized on its ability to add spice and dryness to drinks with many juices and syrups. St. Elizabeth Allspice Dram is a traditional preparation made with smoky Jamaican pot-still rum. Famous with bourbon in the Lion’s Tail. Use Allspice Dram in rum punches, as the base note of numerous tropical drinks, in mulled wine or the seasoning for Sangria. Great with grapefruit or pineapple juice drinks and in coffee. In cooking, it makes for an easy jerk chicken with superb carmelization.
