Ingredients
- 2 Cups Ice Cubes (divide between two glasses)
- 1 Cup Pineapple Orange Juice (juice blend)
- ½ Cup Malibu Coconut Rum
- Grenadine (splash)
- Maraschino Cherries (garnishing)
- Pineapple and Orange Wedges (garnishing)
Instructions
- Prepare the Glasses: Divide 2 cups of ice cubes between two tall glasses. This will keep your drinks chilled and ready for layering.
