The Pineapple's Crown - perfect for late summer sipping!
I’ve seen a meme making the rounds suggesting that folks should act like a pineapple: “Stand tall, Wear a crown, And be sweet on the inside”.
I like my version better: “Mix some whiskey with your pineapple, Wear the crown (because why not), and savor the sweet flavor. Then make another round.”

Ilise created this yummy cocktail – which tastes sort of like a piña colada but sans coconut – with a friend in mind who is allergic to rum. (Sad!) This drink features smoked whiskey – Stolen makes a good one – in place of the rum and adds a few other goodies.

Goody-goody is the appropriate reaction! Easy to make and even easier to enjoy with friends as we celebrate the final days of summer. Click on the photos to enlarge them and read the captions.
