Pimento dram (or allspice dram, pimento cordial, or allspice liqueur) is a Jamaican liqueur produced by steeping allspice ("pimento") berries in rum.[1]
The 2021 The Oxford Companion to Spirits and Cocktails states that pimento dram has been an article of commerce since the 1850s, and has a flavor "reminiscient of cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg."[2] There are several entries for pimento dram being presented at the International Exhibition of 1862 by the Royal Society of Arts, Jamaica.[3]
