Bamboo

This version combines rye whiskey, Cherry Heering, pineapple juice, and grenadine. The fruit juice and grenadine give it a slightly sweet tropical profile, while the rye keeps it from tasting like a simple punch.

The version described here is attributed to the Barbizon Hotel Bar in New York City in 1941. That makes it a mid-century hotel-bar drink rather than a modern canned cocktail.

The name Bamboo is also used for a different classic made with sherry, dry vermouth, and bitters. This entry describes the rye, Cherry Heering, pineapple juice, and grenadine version, so the ingredient list should be checked before ordering.

It leans slightly sweet and tropical because pineapple juice and grenadine are paired with cherry liqueur. Rye whiskey supplies the stronger spirit note, so it is not a non-alcoholic fruit drink.
