Shake Jamaican Rum, Sweet Vermouth, Campari, Tea with ice. Strain into a highball glass.

While reading Jeff Berry’s Potions of the Caribbean, I came across Colonel A.R. Woolley’s Lemon Hart Rum-based Improved Planter’s Punch. Inspired by this and the Rum Negroni-like Right Hand cocktail, I decided to blend both ideas. By incorporating cooled tea as a diluent and adding mint and nutmeg garnishes from my take on the Improved Planter’s Punch, I created the Right Handed Planter.
