According to the first traceable Jungle Bird cocktail recipe in “The New American Bartender’s Guide” by John J. Poister in 1989, it was created in 1978 in the former KL Hilton’s Aviary Bar on Jalan Sultan Ismail. Jungle Bird refers to the birds that you could see from inside The Aviary Bar. Guests facing the stage would see the birds through a glass panel where they were kept in a netting area near the swimming pool.&nbsp;Bartender Tip:While not a usual suspect in many tiki drinks, Campari lends itself well to the modern American palate, Pineapple, and lime smooth any rough edges and add a characteristically tropical vibe to this classic.
