Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 oz Vodka
  • 1 oz Grenadine
  • 1 oz Orange Juice
  • 1 oz Pineapple Juice
  • Fresh fruit slices (orange, cherry) for garnish
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Glass: Start with a clean, tall glass to showcase the beautiful layers of your cocktail.

  4. Top Layer: Repeat the process with 1 oz of Pineapple Juice, using the spoon to help gently layer it on top of the orange mixture.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Finish with fresh fruit slices for an extra touch of color and flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy the enchanting sunset in your glass!

Notes
