Recipe

• 60ml pineapple juice

• 40ml vodka

• 30ml Chambord

Shake thoroughly with ice (to get a good "head") and strain into a martini glass.

Much fruitier and sweeter than my IBA-approved first attempt, and to my surprise, an improvement. It's not a sophisticated, dry affair you can boast about to your awful cocktail friends, but it's a delicious sweet puddingy drink, with character and depth, which I could easily drink several of without finding it too sickly.

I should mention that I used "Pineapple juice with a hint of lime", so perhaps a little less Chambord would be better if using standard pineapple juice, to avoid too much sweetness. Goes well with a game of Carcassonne and/or a chunk of pineapple.

Note that it's not as red as the stock photo I used; like all the red Manhattan photos you see, I'm guessing the photographer got carried away with the saturation setting on their camera. It looks a lot darker and browner in real life, and the foam on top really justifies its nickname, "Girly Guinness".
