Sean Kenyon recommends making this cocktail with nutmeg-and-allspice-inflected Chairman's Reserve spiced rum. Honey steeped with dried habanero gives the drink a persistent warmth. "On the first sip it seems only slightly spicy, but it builds," he says. "It's amazing how the cocktail evolves as you drink it." Slideshows:  Rum Drinks
