Notes
Use good quality ice
If you are using canned pineapple juice, be sure to shake well before adding to this drink. It does tend to separate.
Use the Coconut Rum that you enjoy. I happen to have Malibu at home, but if you have a different brand you prefer then use that
Use cranberry cocktail, not 100% cranberry juice.
Garnish is optional, but makes it pretty
If you are looking to make a layered drink, pour slowly. That density lesson you had in school is going to come into play. The ingredients with the most sugar will settle at the bottom.
If your juices aren't already chilled, then take out a shaker and combine the pineapple juice and rum with some ice to chill.
