Rum Cocktails

We have gone over a few different ways that you can make a riff on a classic cocktail. Can we make the ultimate riff? Is it possible? Challenge accepted.

For this next cocktail, I am going to use all of the concepts that we have gone over to make something new, while ensuring it still resembles the original. Here, I am going to take the beloved Paloma, and require that I add a new base spirit, utilize a split-base, incorporate bitterness, and add a new flavor by way of reducing sugar and adding a liqueur.
