Sweeny's Cocktail - Pineapple Week

Sweeny's Cocktail

1 1/2 oz brandy
1/2 pineapple juice
1/4 oz maraschino liquer
2 dash Angostura bitters

Shake and strain into cocktail glass.


After the first sip I am thinking "way way too much maraschino", but after a couple more sips the maraschino became less pronounced. Going into this drink I knew that there would be little, if anything, of the pineapple coming through in the end. And that was definitely the case. Virtually no pineapple taste, if anything it just serves to temper the alcohol of the brandy.

Not particularly an interesting drink.
