Step 1: Prepare Your Pitcher or Punch Bowl

Use a large glass pitcher or punch bowl that holds at least 2 quarts. This gives you enough room to stir the drink and add ice or fruit.

Step 2: Mix the Base

In your serving container, combine:

• 1 cup coconut rum

• 1 cup peach schnapps

• 1 cup orange juice

• 1 cup pineapple juice

• ¼ cup fresh lime juice

Stir gently with a long spoon to blend the spirits and juices thoroughly.

Step 3: Add the Sparkle

Pour in:

• ½ cup club soda or lemon-lime soda (depending on whether you want a neutral or slightly sweetened fizz)

Stir gently again. Avoid overmixing to preserve the carbonation.

Step 4: Add the Sunset

Slowly pour ½ cup of grenadine along the side of the pitcher or bowl. The grenadine will sink to the bottom, creating a layered “sunset” effect. Avoid stirring at this point if you want to preserve the visual contrast.

Step 5: Add Ice or Frozen Fruit

Toss in:

• A generous handful of ice cubes, or

• Frozen pineapple chunks, strawberries, or mango for added flavor and a chilled effect without dilution.

Step 6: Garnish & Serve

Garnish the pitcher with:

• Sliced oranges

• Pineapple wedges on the rim

• Maraschino cherries floating on top

Serve in tall glasses over ice with fruit in each glass for presentation.
