You will need

  • 40ml dark rum

  • 20ml Campari

  • 15ml lime juice

  • 15ml simple syrup

  • 40ml pineapple juice

  • Pineapple wedge to garnish

Here’s what to do


  • Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker with ice.
  • Shake well to chill completely.
  • Strain over ice into a straight sided tumbler.
  • Garnish with a pineapple wedge (and pineapple leaves if you have them so it resembles a bird’s tail).

Tips and tricks

  • Simple Syrup is just a syrup made from equal parts sugar and water, simmered for five minutes so the sugar dissolves, then cooled. It can be kept in a jar in the fridge for 3-6 months.
