Tips
Stir the Algonquin if you like. Pineapple juice gets foamy when shaken and some people don't enjoy this aspect. However, it does settle after a few minutes.
Thankfully, rye whiskey has come back into fashion after a few decades of low production and visibility. There are now a number of great brands to choose from, and any of these would work wonderfully for this cocktail.
Unsweetened pineapple juice is generally recommended by traditionalists who appreciate this cocktail with a drier profile.
To ensure the cleanest pineapple taste, run the fruit through an electric juicer or mash a few chunks of pineapple with a muddler before adding the other ingredients.
