The Jungle Bird is a tropical rum cocktail with a twist! Bitter Campari offsets sweet pineapple juice to make a balanced, refreshing mixed drink.

Jungle Bird Cocktail (with Campari!)

(3 tablespoons) dark rum

pineapple juice

(2 tablespoons) Campari (to taste)

(1 tablespoon) lime juice

(1 tablespoon) simple syrup

For the garnish: Pineapple wedge, pineapple leaves (optional)

Add the dark rum, pineapple juice, Campari, lime juice, and simple syrup to a cocktail shaker and fill it with ice. Shake vigorously until cold.

Strain into cocktail glass. Garnish with a pineapple wedge, pineapple leaves, or fresh mint.

This is an absolutely delicious cocktail! Beautifully balanced - fruity, slightly bitter &amp; still slightly sweet. Made with maple syrup option. Excellent - I feel like a fancy bartender! Thank you!

'Love your drink recipes!  'Had a cocktail at a California Beach hotel with the same ingredient list that I just loved so I thought it was a Jungle Bird. I made your Jungle Bird recipe and loved it, but felt like I should be drinking it at a swim-up bar.  Turns out the one I had was a little less sweet, a little less fruity, and more booze forward so I modified your Jungle Bird recipe to replicate it. I reduced the pineapple juice and simple syrup and increased the Campari. The one I finished with is very similar, but feels more at home in the evening with other adult cocktails.
1.5oz dark rum (Myers)
1.5oz Campari
1 oz pineapple juice
1/2 oz lime juice (1Tsp)
1/4oz simple syrup (1/2Tsp - I used agave syrup)
If you like a Boulevardier or other Campari drink as much as I do you may enjoy this slightly tropical take.
