The recipe in the D&C book calls for 1 dash Angostura and 1 Dash Bitter Truth Aromatic bitters as well. 

Curated to reflect the correction in the comments. Thanks!

An excellent drink that rewards high quality ingredients (blending in some longer aged cognac/armagnac/calvados adds considerable depth). It skews sweet but the richness of the base spirits helps to balance. I find that about half of the amount of maple syrup suffices (but I tend to use darker maple syrup than perhaps the original D&Co spec did). Love this drink for a slow sipping postprandial and/or nightcap.

  • Tasty and refreshing — ★★★★
  • Bump up the banane to a scant 3/4.
  • Very very tasty, though not as banana-y as I hoped
  • Great use of Smith and Cross. Perfect summer drink.
  • Delicious, I like splitting the flor de cana with something with a little more jamaican flavor.

  • The Montenegro does magical things here. MN and Pineapple are just a great a combo (see Jelena).
  • OMG so good! Had to sub meletti and used 2 generous pinches of madagascan bourbon vanilla powder for syrup. Shaking hard with 3 ice cubes gave it a creamy foamy vanilla head, yum! — ★★★★★
  • Spicy, citrusy, wonderfully good! — ★★★★★

This is extremely nice. After being similarly surprised by the Jelena, I've concluded that pineapple and Montenegro are just a surprisingly great and underappreciated combination.
