Chappell Roan’s “Pink Pony Club” is an anthem for anyone who’s ever wanted to walk into a room and sparkle, and this cocktail is its liquid counterpart. Prickly pear syrup gives it a vivid pink color, while two kinds of rum, pineapple, lime, and a touch of almond orgeat turn it into a tiki-style sipper that’s as fun to drink as it is to look at. It comes together in about six minutes with just a shaker and a highball glass, so you can spend less time mixing and more time with the music up. Garnish it with a mint sprig and a pineapple frond, and pour yourself something worthy of the spotlight.
Tasting Notes: Juicy, tropical, and just sweet enough. Prickly pear and pineapple lead, almond orgeat adds a creamy softness, and lime keeps it bright.
