based on the Canton cocktail, but with the grenadine upped. some call it a Chinese cocktail, I call it the Red Lantern:

1.5 oz dark rum
half oz grenadine
qtr oz. Luxardo maraschino liqueur
qtr oz. triple sec (or curacao if you prefer)
dash of Angostura bitters

Shake over ice, strain into cocktail glass, garnish w/cherry and orange twist.

nice balance of sweetness, citrus, maraschino funk, and molasses.

Mabuhay!
