About
The Jungle Bird is a tropical classic that originated in Malaysia in the 1970s, first served at the Aviary Bar of the Kuala Lumpur Hilton. Its combination of dark rum, Campari, and pineapple juice creates a uniquely balanced cocktail, blending sweet, tart, and bitter flavors. The Jungle Bird is a standout in tiki culture for its use of Campari, adding a distinctive bitter note to the otherwise fruity and tropical profile. Its vibrant history and exotic flavor make it a favorite among cocktail enthusiasts seeking something adventurous.
