How do you get the perfect layers in a Pineapple Sunset Shot?

The key to perfect Pineapple Sunset Shot Refreshing Layers is the density of the liquids. Start by pouring the heaviest liquid, grenadine, slowly down the side of the glass. Follow with chilled pineapple juice and finally the vodka. Using the back of a bar spoon can help slow the pour and prevent mixing.

Can I make this shot non-alcoholic?

Yes, you can easily create a virgin version of the Pineapple Sunset Shot Refreshing Layers. Simply replace the vodka with a splash of lemon-lime soda or extra pineapple juice. The layering effect will remain as long as you maintain the order of sugar density.

What is the best way to garnish this tropical shot?

To complement the Pineapple Sunset Shot Refreshing Layers, use a small maraschino cherry at the bottom or a tiny wedge of fresh pineapple on the rim. A sprig of mint also adds a beautiful green contrast to the orange and red hues.
