Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by choosing a tall glass, such as a highball or hurricane glass, and fill it generously with ice to chill the drink.
  2. Pour 4 ounces of vibrant pineapple juice over the ice, followed by 1 ounce of Tequila Blanco.
  3. Gently drizzle 1/2 ounce of grenadine into the glass, allowing it to sink slowly to the bottom.
  4. Pour a splash of Champagne or Prosecco on top, filling the glass until the foam rises just above the rim.
  5. Twist a strip of orange peel over the drink to release its fragrant oils, then place it alongside a maraschino cherry on top.
