Photography copyright: Kelly Puleio © 2018 ----- Frank Cisneros says this is probably the most popular cocktail he's ever made; it was on the menu at Gin Palace in New York's East Village for years. Upon first taste, you'll see why it was such a crowd-pleaser. It's a sunny, warming drink, thanks to pineapple's heady tropical flavor and a spicy cinnamon simple syrup, all perked up with grapefruit, lime, and piney gin. -- There's no need to get out a juicer for this; just muddle a 2- to 3-inch chunk of fresh pineapple and strain through a fine-mesh strainer into your measuring cup or jigger. This drink would be totally at home at a tiki party; you can multiply the recipe (and make fresh pineapple juice by whirring chopped fruit in your blender, then straining), but don't try to shake more than two drinks at a time.
