Jungle Bird Cocktail Recipe
You don't always think "bitter" when you think summer refresher, but every flavor has its place. Notes of orange pith, rhubarb, and grapefruit peel pair nicely with fresh pineapple and lime for a crisp bitter zing. Softened slightly with blackstrap rum, the Jungle Bird is your go-to in the sun cocktail when you are craving a Negroni but also don't want to give up your lounge chair.
