About
I’ve seen this cocktail by Brendan Dorr (@bmoredorr) at Pink Flamingo Baltimore making the rounds. And for good reason. It’s basically a stirred Jungle Bird, and I mean that in the best way possible. I’m already team Bruto Americano (sorry, Campari), so seeing it shine here immediately caught my attention. The pineapple gum syrup brings a soft, almost plush texture, and the lime bitters add just the right amount of citrus lift. Every element feels purposeful. This one’s officially in the rotation!Cheers y’all!
