A rum drink where pineapple rum, passion fruit syrup and allspice dram bring tropical fruit and spice, with a dash of absinthe, Angostura and a splash of overproof rum. Created by Frederic Yarm at Drink in Boston, MA, in 2022.

Frederic Yarm created the Pickwick Club at Drink in Boston in 2022, after a guest asked for a fruitier take on the Old Fashioned and Yarm went tropical instead, using Plantation pineapple rum, passion fruit syrup, vanilla-and-allspice-dram syrup and three bitters. It went over well with three guests that evening, including the one who asked for it. The name refers to the Pickwick Club of Charles Dickens, which the origins of the rum are tied to.
