Or check out Jeff "Beachbum" Berry's books for classic Tiki-drink recipes of the past (and some new ones). Not all are rum but most, of course are.
"Grog Log" and "Intoxica"

Caipirinha is made with cachaca, not rum! they might both be spirits made from sugar cane, but have a very different taste!
I completely agree that it has a very different taste from rum. This post was before I was educated on cachaca.
Thanks for the correction.
I still highly recommend the Caipirinha.
