Traditional Caribbean ratio for Rum cocktail is:
1 of sour
2 of sweet
3 of strong and
4 of weak.
Traditional Rum Punch, for example, would be mixed with 1 part (13oz) lime juice, 2 parts (26oz) simple syrup, 3 parts (38oz) Rum and 4 parts (51oz) water, juice, etc.
Totalling 128 oz, or 1 gallon.
This renders a cocktail that has some punch (pardon the pun) but without being too deadly. From this ratio, you can strengthen or weaken to your liking.
If you like coconut, sure.
