A pink, fruity Prohibition classic blending rum, pineapple, and grenadine.
Base spirit
Pineapple
Style
And grenadine for a 1920s classic.
The Mary Pickford mixes white rum with pineapple juice, grenadine, and a touch of maraschino liqueur for a soft, sweet-tart profile. The drink's texture is frothy and delicate when shaken properly, with the maraschino providing a dry, nutty finish that grounds the fruit sugars. Created in Havana during Prohibition, it represents the glamour of American tourism in Cuba. It is sweeter than a Daiquiri but more complex than a simple punch.
