Malibu Sunset

ounces* coconut rum (like Malibu)

pineapple juice

orange juice

grenadine

Ice, for serving (try clear ice)

For the garnish: drink umbrella, orange slice, and cocktail cherry

Add ice to highball or hurricane glass. Add the coconut rum, then slowly pour orange juice followed by the pineapple juice.

Pour the grenadine into center of the drink and it will sink to the bottom. Stir gently for the sunset gradient effect. Garnish with a drink umbrella, orange slice and a cocktail cherry.

So I tried it with the Captain Morgan and it worked out wonderfully!! I don't think it took away from the visually stunning aspect, but it was a just a tad bit darker from the darker rum.. I also made my own grenadine from the cherry juice.. It was SO GOOD!! Everyone loved the kick of the drink and how fruity it tasted. I wish I could post a picture, it really was a beautiful sunset drink!! Thanks so much!! My friend loved the birthday drinks!!

Oh btw, I added the Captain Morgan right before the grenadine.. In case anyone else wants to try it this way
