Wicked Pineapple Swizzle – At Tommy Bahama we are not known for our wicked side – but it is the ideal description for this swizzle libation created by Tommy Bahama Rumologist Jack Terry. He took fresh pineapple juice and added a velvet Falernum for a taste that is so good:it’s bad. Add all ingredients together except the soda water. Mix over ice in glass. Top with soda. Garnish with a lime slice.

¾ part Velvet Falernum
1 ½ parts pineapple juice
2 dashes bitters
1 part club soda
