LOVE IT! Using as 1 of 2 signature drinks for a small gathering to support a friend with ALS. We've tested and are adding a pink sugared rim in addition to the cherry garnish. Thanks for sharing! Also making the Salty Dog. We were in need of pink cocktails for our event as a joke of Halloweens past. Our friend with ALS (a 6'4" guy) came as a ballerina in a pink tutu. So the Mary Pickford will be called "The Pink Tutu" that evening and the Salty Dog, "That's No Lady".

I love this recipe! I taste-tested it against an old 1980s recipe I had for the Mary Pickford. The '80s recipe used all the same ingredients, just different proportions. It called for proportionally more pineapple juice, and only 1/2 teaspoon each Maraschino and grenadine. The '80s drink was a pale pink color, and this recipe was more of a rose color. My husband also tasted both glasses and chose this recipe over the '80s recipe :) What I liked most in this recipe compared to the other one was less pineapple juice and more obvious Maraschino. This is my new go-to recipe. Thank you!
