Yellow Bird Cocktail - Friday's 5 o'clock Wet Your Whistle Call!



“Yellow Bird, up high in banana tree. Yellow Bird, you sit all alone like me” or so the song goes. You won’t be alone for long when you serve up this cheerful cocktail!
Similar to a Screwdriver, the Yellow Bird replaces the vodka with two types of rum. As an extra treat, there is a little Galliano for extra flavor.
Ingredients:
  • juice of half a lime
  • 1 1/4 oz orange juice
  • 1 oz light rum
  • 1 oz dark rum
  • 1/4 oz Galliano
  • maraschino cherry for garnish
Preparation:
  1. Squeeze the lime juice into a cocktail shaker with ice.
  2. Add all of the remaining ingredients.
  3. Shake well.
  4. Strain into a collins glass with crushed ice.
  5. Garnish with the cherry.
