Ingredients
 

  • oz Midori - 1 part
  • oz pineapple juice - 1 part
  • oz Vodka - 1 part
  • oz Overproof Rum - 1 part
  • Ice cubes
  • Pineapple slice or cherry - for garnish, optional

Equipment

  • Shot Glass
  • Pour Spout
  • Bar spoon

Instructions

  • Add Midori: Add 1 part or approx. ⅜ oz Midori into the shot glass.
  • Add Pineapple Juice: Using a pour spout layer slowly 1 part or approx. ⅜ oz pineapple juice.
  • Add Vodka: Add 1 part or approx. ⅜ oz Vodka in the same way using a pour spout.
  • Add Overproof Rum: Finish filling up the glass by layering 1 part or ⅜ oz Overproof Rum.
  • Serve: Serve and enjoy the shot.

Notes

Substitutes:

  • Midori: If you don't have Midori, I've used other melon liqueurs as a substitute, which work well and keep that fruity flavor intact.
  • Pineapple Juice: Fresh pineapple juice tastes best, but canned works in a pinch. If you're out of pineapple juice, try orange juice for a different twist.
  • Vodka: Any clear spirit can work if you don't have vodka; white rum or gin can be attractive alternatives.
  • Overproof Rum: Regular rum can replace overproof rum if you want a less intense drink. Just use the same amount.
