Pacific Northwest: Taste

Rain City Punch
"This twist on rum punch is the creation of Waterfront Restaurant's beverage manager Jude Augustine," Cynthia Nims and Kathy Casey say. "You could multiply the quantities to make a pitcher for a party: Combine the ingredients with a couple of handfuls of ice and stir well to blend, then pour the punch into ice-filled glasses for serving."

Makes 1 serving

1 fluid ounce pineapple juice
1 fluid ounce sweet-and-sour mix
2/3 fluid ounce dark rum
2/3 fluid ounce amaretto
Splash Chambord
Splash soda
Lime slice, for garnish
Maraschino cherry, for garnish


Half-fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add the pineapple juice, sweet-and-sour mix, rum, amaretto, Chambord and soda. Cover the shaker and shake until well chilled, then pour the contents, ice included, into a tall cocktail glass. Garnish the rim of the glass with the lime slice, float the cherry on top, and serve.
