Method

Cocktail

Build and serve

Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice (about 1 cup). Pour in 2 oz whipped vodka and 4 oz chilled pineapple juice. Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 8–12 seconds until well chilled.

Strain the mixed cocktail into an old-fashioned glass or highball glass filled with fresh ice.

Slowly pour 0.5 oz grenadine down the inside edge of the glass or over the back of a spoon so it sinks toward the bottom and creates the characteristic 'upside down' gradient.

Garnish with a pineapple wedge or a maraschino cherry (or both) on the rim or on a pick.

Serve immediately with a straw. Optionally, before drinking, stir gently to combine the grenadine if you prefer a uniformly sweetened drink.
