Method
 

  1. Fill two highball glasses with ice cubes, packing them in firmly.
  2. Divide the white gummy bears evenly between both glasses, dropping them onto the ice.
  3. Add 2 ounces of vodka to each glass, pouring slowly over the gummy bears and ice.
  4. Pour 2 ounces of pineapple juice into each glass.
  5. If using, add 1 ounce of coconut rum to each glass and stir gently to combine.
  6. Add 1.5 ounces of white cranberry juice to each glass.
  7. Pour 0.5 ounces of simple syrup and 0.25 ounces of fresh lemon juice into each glass and stir thoroughly.
  8. Stir each drink with a bar spoon for about 10 seconds to chill and combine ingredients.
  9. Garnish each glass with a pineapple wedge or lemon wheel and serve immediately with a straw and bar spoon.

Notes

For best flavor, let the gummy bears soak in the liquid for at least 10 minutes before serving so they become infused and more flavorful.
