Pineapple Rum sunrise


With food comes drinks let it be a nice wine to mixxed drink or even a simple splash of coke. Even tho this blog is dedicated to food, drinks will also be included. As a previous bartender drink mixolgy is a must have for pairing with food!

Here we have a simple mixed drink Pineapple Rum sunrise. traditional the tequila sunrise was the original drink of sunrises. The era of single juice drinks have changed and new creative drinks are forming. In this mix the ingredients are as follows.

Pineapple rum cocktail
2 cups pineapple juice
1 shot glass of Dark rum (Bacardi)
1 half shot glass of Malibu rum
1 table spoon roses grenadine
3 cups of Ice

you need two cups to mix one smaller then the other to fit upside down into( to shake). in your mixing glass fill with ice pour 1 1/2 cup of juice in, bacardi rum, malibu rum. cover with other glass and shake well . fill a tall collins glass with ice and pour your mix in discard the used ice you should have a frothy top. pour 1 table spoon of roses on the side rim of the glass to make the sunrise effect. add a straw and enjoy

Best paired with: pineapple has a bit of tartness to it yet sweet ! this drink would be best served with a pineapple upside cake or a carrot cake

Live life, and Enjoy food!
