Looks great! I'm a big fan of stirred cocktails with sweeter liquors like brandy or rum

Pineapple syrup you say... 👀. Do you make that with 1:1 pineapple juice and sugar? I feel like pineapple juice is already pretty sweet. Maybe 2:1?

I just blended pineapple, strained it to get the juice, then used that to make simple syrup (2:1 juice to sugar). Because your right, the juice is sweet enough as is.
