Cocktail

Method

Cocktail

  1. 1

    Prepare glass

    Choose a highball or Collins glass. Fill the glass about three-quarters full with fresh ice (about 1 cup).

  2. 2

    Build the cocktail

    Pour 2 oz vodka and 0.5 oz fresh lime juice over the ice. Add 0.5 oz grenadine and, if using, 0.25 oz maraschino cherry juice for extra sweetness.

  3. 3

    Top with cola

    Gently top the mixture with 3 oz chilled cola. Stir once gently with a bar spoon to combine — you want a light swirl that leaves a layered look but mixes flavors.

  4. 4

    Garnish and finish

    Garnish with 1 lime wedge and drop in 1–2 maraschino cherries. Serve with a straw, and instruct the drinker to give the drink a gentle stir before sipping if the grenadine has settled.
