Prep Time5 minutes
Course: Cocktail
Servings: 1

Ingredients

  • ounces aged rum
  • ounces pineapple juice
  • 3/4 ounce Campari
  • 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 ounce rich demerara syrup
  • Pineapple wedge garnish
  • Brandied cherry garnish

Instructions

  • Combine rum, Campari, pineapple juice, lime juice, and demerara syrup in a shaker with ice.
  • Shake and double strain into a chilled old-fashioned glass over fresh ice or a large ice cube.
  • Garnish with a pineapple wedge and brandied cherry.

Notes

Chill your glasses in the freezer. A cold glass prevents warming and keeps your drink colder for longer.
Serve over a large ice cube, regular cubes, or pebble ice for a tiki feel.A giant ice cube is designed to melt slower due to its size, causing less dilution. If you’re serious about making cocktails, invest in a clear ice maker. Clear ice cubes taste better and melt even slower.
This cocktail benefits from a strong shake. This will froth up the pineapple juice, rendering a little foam, which adds a nice texture.
