In a cocktail shaker, combine the white rum, pineapple juice, coconut cream, and fresh lime juice.
Fill the shaker with the ice cubes, ensuring there's enough room to shake effectively.
Close the shaker tightly and shake vigorously for about 20 seconds to chill and mix the ingredients thoroughly.
Strain the cocktail mixture into a tall glass filled with fresh ice.
Slowly drizzle the grenadine over the drink—it will settle at the bottom, creating a beautiful gradient effect.
Garnish the drink with a pineapple wedge and a maraschino cherry on the rim of the glass.
Serve immediately with a straw, stir gently before drinking, and enjoy!
