Is the generally accepted painkiller ratio 4:1:1 and then dark rum to suit?

I'm not a Pusser's Rum fan so I use Appleton's. Any good dark rum would work, though. I use the same proportion of 'other' ingredients Twanger mentioned above.
And oh yes, fresh grated Nutmeg is required.

Heat is the key! I get the coco loco pretty warm and then it mixes right in

The hot water bath approach is effective as well as "gently" [low power] microwaving in an appropriate container.

We set our cans of Coco Lopez on the cabin top of the boat for a bit first. Warms it right up!
Also: I'm a 1 part OJ guy...

Not meaning to be heretical but has anyone tried this stuff? Lots easier to use than Coco Lopez, does not require refrigeration and just requires a little shake to insure it is mixed. I can't tell the difference in a painkiller.

I find CocoReal to be a fantastic replacement for Lopez. I think the taste is quite good and no sticky mess or separation to contend with. We take several bottles down on every trip. It also comes in a multitude of flavors (Mango Puree, Guava, Passion...etc) Many cocktail options from there.
