Method

Cocktail

1

Combine and chill

Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with fresh ice.

2

Add ingredients

Pour 1.5 oz Tito's vodka, 0.75 oz peach schnapps, 2 oz pineapple juice, 1.5 oz orange juice, and 0.25 oz fresh lime juice (if using) into the shaker.

3

Shake

Cover and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the shaker is cold to the touch and the mixture is well-chilled and slightly diluted.

4

Prepare glass

Fill a highball or Collins glass with fresh ice.

5

Strain and layer

Strain the shaken mixture into the prepared glass. Slowly pour 0.5 oz blue curaçao over the back of a spoon or down the inside of the glass so it sinks and creates a layered, 'river' effect near the bottom/center of the drink.

Garnish & Serve

6

Garnish the glass with an orange wheel or a pineapple wedge on the rim and drop in a maraschino cherry if desired.

7

Serve immediately with a straw. Before drinking, gently stir once if you prefer a uniformly colored cocktail; otherwise leave layered for visual effect.
