Close the shaker and shake for 10 to 15 seconds. Place the maraschino cherry in a cocktail glass, then strain the drink into the glass.
1 maraschino cherry
Add the grenadine by pressing the tip of the spoon against the side of the glass. Make sure the bottom of the spoon faces upward, and slowly pour the grenadine over the back of the spoon for a layered sunset look. Serve immediately.
¾ ounce grenadine
Notes
Adjust the coconut rum, juice, or grenadine to suit your taste.
Maraschino cherry juice can replace the grenadine, although the finished color may look slightly different.
For a stronger cocktail, add a little more coconut rum, a splash of pineapple rum, or slightly reduce the juice. I almost always add a little more of something. :)
