The Story Behind The Painkiller
The Painkiller was first made in the British Virgin Islands with Pusser’s Navy Rum. You may notice it on menus with the numbers #2, #3, and #4 after its name; that indicates how many ounces of rum are used.
It’s essentially a boozier Piña Colada, and is sure to drown any and all sorrows.
