pineapple dance

1 1/2 oz Planteray Pineapple Rum
1 oz Cynar
3/4 oz Pineapple Juice
1/2 oz Lemon Juice

Shake with ice and strain into a coupe glass.
Two Saturdays ago, I uncovered a set of online recipe flashcards for the Liholiho Yacht Club in San Francisco. There, I latched on to the Pineapple Dance that could have been named after a dance studio that opened in London in 1979 in a former pineapple warehouse and spawned a dancewear clothing brand. As for a timeframe, I was able to find drink photos on Yelp between 2017-2019. Overall, the recipe reminded me a little of Derek Brown's The Getaway with the addition of a double dose of pineapple ingredients. Once shaken and strained, the Pineapple Dance welcomed the nose with pineapple, rum, caramel, and herbal bouquet. Next, caramel, pineapple, and lemon notes on the sip twirled into pineapple, rum, and funky herbal flavors on the swallow.
