Units
Scale
- 1 oz grenadine (red layer)
- 1 oz banana liqueur or pineapple juice (yellow layer)
- 1 oz green melon liqueur (e.g., Midori) (green layer)
- 1/2 oz white rum (optional, for each layer)
- Crushed ice or ice cubes
- Lime wedge and maraschino cherry for garnish
Instructions
- Fill a tall glass with crushed ice.
- Slowly pour grenadine into the bottom of the glass to form the red layer.
- In a shaker, mix banana liqueur with a splash of white rum and carefully pour it over the back of a spoon to create the yellow middle layer.
- Do the same with the green melon liqueur (and optional rum) for the top green layer.
- Garnish with a lime wedge and cherry.
- Serve immediately and let the colors dazzle!
Notes
- Layer gently over the back of a spoon to keep colors from mixing.
- For a non-alcoholic version, use fruit juices: grenadine, pineapple juice, and melon soda.
- Best served in a clear glass to show off the layered look.
