Fill a highball or rocks glass with ice to keep the drink refreshingly cold.
Pour the whipped vodka and ginger ale over the ice. Stir gently to combine the flavors without losing the ginger ale's fizz.
Slowly pour the grenadine into the glass. Allow it to settle at the bottom for a layered effect, or stir lightly for an even color.
Top the drink with a maraschino cherry for a festive and decorative finishing touch.
