Cailin Russo Celebrates Her New Album 'Influx' With a Pineapple Crush Cocktail

Cailin Russo is a pop phoenix. With each new iteration, the Los Angeles-based rising star sheds her previous skin to present a vision wholly new, intermingling version of her past selves with a self-exploratory drive. Nowhere does this sentiment ring more true than in her latest album, INFLUX, a multi-textured work of indie pop that introduces us to this rendition of Russo in her full glory. To celebrate Russo and her latest album, we invited the rising star to transform her intoxicating sonic work into an irresistible cocktail.
