Zenaida Dove cocktail

I tweeted this recipe a month ago, and today had to spend 10 minutes tracking it down—a good reminder that anything original I do should be posted here on my blog first and then tweeted, not just posted to twitter.
Here the recipe:
1 oz Roses Lime
1 oz Campari
1 oz bottled pineapple juice
1 oz Cruzan blackstrap rum
Basically, it’s a Jungle Bird, but without fresh juice.
I’d had it in mind to make it for cocktail hour this evening, but sadly we just finished the pineapple juice. I guess it’s a Boulevardier for this evening. (Hence, no picture. Sorry.)

Seabreeze with two-thirds regular vodka, one-third cucumber vodka makes a sea-cucumber breeze. Jackie likes it.

Yesterday’s cocktail napkin was funny.
