Light or white rum works best; the recipe traditionally calls for imported rum like Old Mr. Boston. Avoid dark or spiced rum, which overpowers the delicate fruit flavors.
Maraschino is essential to the drink's balance and signature flavor. There's no direct substitute that won't change the character of the cocktail.
Shake with ice to chill and properly combine the rum, pineapple juice, and liqueurs. Strain into a chilled coupe or cocktail glass.
Fresh juice adds brightness and clarity; bottled works but may taste slightly muted. Either is acceptable depending on preference and availability.
Serve in a chilled coupe glass or cocktail glass to showcase the drink's color and aroma.
