Ingredients
- 3 ounces pineapple juice
- 2 ounces orange juice
- 1 ounce dark rum
- 1 ounce coconut rum
- 1 ounce spiced rum
- 1 splash grenadine
Garnish
- ½ ounce dark rum to splash on top optional
- Lime slices
- Maraschino Cherries
Instructions
- In an ice filled glass, combine the pineapple juice, orange juice and rums. Gently stir.
- Slowly pour in a splash of grenadine. I like to pour over a spoon that is upside down with the tip near the glass. The grenadine will sink to the bottom.
- Splash 1/2 ounce of the dark rum on the top (optional).
- Garnish with a slice of lime and a maraschino cherry. Pretend you're in the tropics.
Notes
To Make Grenadine
- 1 1/2 cups pomegranate juice
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 lime (or lemon), juiced
- Combine the two ingredients over medium heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved.
- Turn the heat to low and let it simmer until the mixture thickens to your liking. If you overdo it, you can always add back in a bit of water.
- Remove from heat and cool slightly and then add the lime juice if using. Refrigerate until cold before adding to cocktails.
