Like it very much, one of my favorite tiki cocktails. I would recommend to decrease the cream of coconut amount to 3 cl, because recipe's 4,5 cl are slightly too sweet.

Wanted to make a Quarantine Order or a Last Bird (yum) but didn’t have pineapple or cinnamon syrup. This came out of a couple failed experiments. Husband likes it so much that he picked the name.

  • Decent - but might be interesting to use a bolder rum to stand up to the sweetness of the syrups or increase it to 2oz or reduce syrups to .5 - .75 total. I also tried this recipe with Rye and it comes out equally good, my wife actually preferred the whiskey version. — ★★★★

Shawn C commented on 10/19/2024:

I am surprised a gin based drink is being listed as "southern" (although it has some similarity to the Ramos Fizz created in New Orleans.) Difford’s has essentially the same recipe listed as the “Celery Sour” with some differences in proportions. (Per Difford the original "celery sour" comes from a 1917 non-alcoholic cocktail in a book by a St. Louis bartender, so the gin is a later addition or the alcohol component was inadvertently omitted in the publication...I suspect the latter. It didn't include egg white.) I am inclined to listing this as an “altered recipe” of the “Celery Sour” with The Grey in Savannah as the place where it was created per the contributor, although it doesn’t show up on their current online cocktail menu. I did locate an old link to their menu showing a “Celery Sour” https://www.opentable.com/r/the-grey. There the egg white is not mentioned but it is under Vintage cocktails as "Gin, Lemon, Pineapple, Celery Bitters"
