Notes

  • Don’t stir the cocktail after grenadine is added. It’s meant to settle which gives this cocktail it’s famous sunrise/sunset layers. 
  • If you want to make a big batch, you can mix the pineapple juice, orange juice, and rum in a large pitcher ahead of time. Keep it in the refrigerator until you're ready to make the drinks.
  • This cocktail is best enjoyed as soon as it's made!
