glass: collins
garnish: maraschino cherry and a pineapple piece skewered on a toothpick
45mls gin
15mls cherry heering
7mls cointreau
7mls benedictine
120ml pineapple juice
15mls lime juice
a dash of grenadine
a dash of bitters
shake thoroughly over ice for a big, frothy pink effect and strain it into an ice-filled collins. Most recipes call for more grenadine, but I suggest going very easy at first because the grenadine will very quickly overpower the rest of the drink in both colour and flavour. Note also that this is a very big drink! it won't fit into a highball glass, so unless you are happy with leftovers or making multiples, make sure you have a proper collins glass or something pretty big to serve it in, because you don't want to skimp on the ice and end up with a 'limp' sort of beverage.
