What are the ingredients in a Mary Pickford cocktail?

The Mary Pickford is made with white Cuban rum, pineapple juice, grenadine, and maraschino liqueur, shaken with ice and strained into a chilled coupe glass. The combination creates a sweet, tropical, blush-colored cocktail with a subtle cherry and citrus complexity from the maraschino. It is typically garnished with a maraschino cherry.

Who was Mary Pickford and why was the cocktail named after her?

Mary Pickford was one of the most famous Hollywood actresses of the silent film era, known as 'America's Sweetheart' and co-founder of United Artists. The cocktail was reportedly created in Havana, Cuba during her visit in the 1920s, when she and actor Douglas Fairbanks traveled there during Prohibition. Bartender Fred Kaufman or Eddie Woelke is often credited with creating the drink in her honor at the Hotel Nacional de Cuba or the Jockey Club.

What is the ABV of a Mary Pickford?

A Mary Pickford typically has an ABV of around 15–20%, as white rum at 40% is diluted substantially by pineapple juice and the small additions of grenadine and maraschino liqueur. The pineapple juice makes up roughly half the drink's volume, significantly reducing the overall alcohol concentration. The result is a fruity, refreshing cocktail with a moderate, approachable strength.

Named for the silent-film actress and co-founder of United Artists, the Mary Pickford pairs light rum and pineapple juice with maraschino liqueur and grenadine, shaken and strained into a chilled cocktail glass over a cherry. The grenadine tints the drink a soft blush pink while the pineapple and rum carry a sweet, tropical core, the maraschino lending a faint nutty-bitter accent. A pre-Prohibition creation listed by the IBA among its Unforgettables, it sits near 13 percent ABV and reads as fruit-forward and decorative. Its elegant, rosy appearance long associated it with the glamour of Hollywood's golden age.
