If you don't want to use grenadine you can use raspberry gum syrup. Somewhat less expensive and much more easy to find, you could also use the rose syrup that comes with hibiscus flowers. It's a decent sweetener and you can use as much or as little to modulate from a soft pink to a deep red. I use it with Fruitlab's hibiscus liqueur, which also adds a deep red.

Boo's Hula:

3 oz coconut water
3/4 oz fresh persian lime
1/2 oz Fruitlab liqueur
1 1/2 oz El Dorado 5 year
1 smackerel rose syrup

Collins, rocks, garnish with hibiscus flower and/or lime wedge
