Pusser's Paradise Punch

So let's have one or more. In this specific cocktail, the quantity of rum you use is a personal decision. The juices are always mixed 4:1:1 for pineapple, orange, and cream of coconut, but the rum can vary from 2-4 ounces. Below is the basic recipe, but feel free to double the rum if extra analgesia is required.
