Ingredients
- 2 ounces pineapple juice
- 2 ounces vanilla vodka
- 1 ounce amaretto liqueur
- 1/2 ounce grenadine syrup
- Pineapple slices and maraschino cherries for garnish
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- Chill your martini glasses in the freezer for about 10 minutes.
- While the glasses are chilling, prepare the Martini mixture. In a cocktail shaker, combine the pineapple juice, vanilla vodka, amaretto liqueur, and a handful of ice cubes.
- Shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well-chilled.
- Remove the chilled Martini glasses from the freezer and drizzle 1/4 ounce (7.5 ml) of grenadine syrup into the bottom of each glass. The grenadine will settle at the bottom, creating a layered effect.
- Carefully strain the Martini mixture from the shaker into the prepared glasses, pouring it gently over the back of a spoon to prevent mixing with the grenadine layer.
- Garnish each Martini with a slice of pineapple and a maraschino cherry on a cocktail pick.
- Serve your Upside Down Pineapple Martini!
Notes
- Adjust the amount of grenadine for a sweeter or less sweet martini.
- For a slightly less potent drink, adjust the vodka quantity to your liking.
- Rim the martini glass with sugar before pouring in the cocktail for an added touch of sweetness and style.
