This summer, surprise your family and friends with a delicious and easy-to-make- Rum Pineapple Tower cocktail. It’s a drink that will compliment your favorite outdoor meal and grace any viewing of a warm-weather sunset. Make this recipe a couple hours before entertaining to allow the pineapple and orange slices to marinate in the rum, and their juices to properly contribute to the drink. Serve with ice in a tumbler or if properly chilled, in white wine glasses with fresh fruit garnishes.

Pineapple Tower
10 ounces Appleton Jamaica Rum
12 ounces pineapple juice
4 ounces orange juice
3 ounces Bols banana liqueur
1.5 ounces Rose’s grenadine
2 ounces lime juice
1 whole pineapple, sliced
2 oranges, sliced
Maraschino cherries

Directions: Slice the skin off of a pineapple and stack it in a pitcher. Slice a couple oranges and stack those too. Pour in the rum, pineapple juice, orange juice, banana liqueur, grenadine, and lime juice, and gently stir. Garnish with maraschino cherries.
