Top with Chambord floater
Using the back of a bar spoon or pouring gently over the surface, float 0.5 oz Chambord on top of the drink. The Chambord will sink slightly and create a layered appearance and a berry aroma.

Garnish and serve
Garnish with an orange wheel or pineapple wedge and a maraschino cherry if desired. Serve immediately with a straw and a stirrer so the guest can mix the Chambord into the drink if they like.
