Today we're making the Jungle Bird! This tropical classic dates back to the 1970s, and is very popular on drinks menus. The blend of rum, Campari, pineapple, and lime make for a boldly flavored drink while still remaining bright and refreshing. Bartenders personalize the Jungle Bird with their choice of rum as the base spirit. I'm mixing rums here, but your favorite will do the trick. Cheers!

If you don’t want to juice fresh pineapple, the cold pressed pineapple juice from Trader Joe’s is the next best thing. It’s in the fridge section!

This is my favorite cocktail! My favorite version: 3/4 oz Cruzan Blackstrap Rum 3/4 oz Plantation O.F.T.D. or Wray & Nephew 3/4 oz Campari 3/4 oz Lime Juice 1 1/2 oz Pinapple Juice 3/4 oz Orgeat Swapping the simple for orgeat and combining overproof rum with the blackstrap really does something for me flavor-wise. Also, making the ratios an even 1 part everything to 2 parts pineapple juice makes it both easy to remember and easy to scale up.

My wife and I have found the lemonhart 151 is our jungle bird rum of choice. The dark brown sugar and almost chocolately notes work so well with Campari

Cruzan makes a great rum across the board! One of my favorites! I'm glad to see it get a mention!

Definitely one of my favs. The bitter sweet fruity frothy goodness. I make a rif for Halloween I call the Jungle Bat where I replace the sugar syrup with Cherry Heering which turns it very red. I also really like Dr Bird rum in it.

I’m a rum fan and also love mixing them in cocktails. And Campari goes great with any acid fruit juice…pineapple, grapefruit, what have you. Definitely one to try in the warm weather. On a side note, if anyone ever gets a chance to visit Kuala Lumpur, I highly recommend. It’s a really cool city.

Freya should be featured more often. Also if you don't mind, could you please make a video on rum old fashioned in the future? Thanks Anders

A classic! Though now I want to try the 'sipper' version.

Everyone has their favorite cocktails, and the Jungle Bird pretty lives at or near the top of my list. Your ratios pretty much match mine (I usually only include a 0.5oz of lime juice). My preferred rum mix for this is to use two rums as you did, but I love the Plantation Stiggin's Pineapple Rum mixed with the contents of my aged rum infinity bottle. Unfortunately it seems that Trader Joe's stopped carrying the little cans of pineapple juice, and I haven't found a suitable substitute for that when fresh juice isn't available. I'll be making one tonight. Thanks Anders. Addendum: I've been known to add a half-ounce of PassoĂŁ passionfruit liqueur to this, and it is delicious that way, as well.

One of my favorites. Usually make it with Smith & Cross. The funkiness of the S&C goes really well with the Campari. Another great film, Anders.
